Frame grabber supports machine vision applications
Provider of embedded building block and application-ready intelligent platform solutions, ADLINK Technology has announced the release of its PCIe-GIE72/74 2/4CH GigEVision PoE+ frame grabbers. With comprehensive Power over Ethernet (PoE) power protection, exclusive to ADLINK, multi-card capture capability, and smart PoE management, combined with ADLINK’s extensive experience in GigE.
Vision-based solutions, the PCIe-GIE72/74 provides complete support for a wide range of machine vision applications, key assets like cameras and other equipment are secured from damage by the PCIe-GIE72/74’s PoE power protection. As well, a user friendly PoE management utility and APIs monitor and control PoE ports in real time and enable prediction of possible failure events.
Multi-card capture capability
Any number of PCIe-GIE72/74 cards can be installed in a single system without occupying any BIOS I/O resources. Combined with wide operating temperature tolerance from 0 to 70˚C, multi-card capability perfectly recommends the PCIe-GIE72/74 for deployment with fanless computers in environments with limited space in applications such as AOI and industrial automation.
Comprehensive PoE protection secures assets
Based on ADLINK’s extensive system expertise, the PCIe-GIE72/74 provides comprehensive PoE protection responding to over/under current, voltage, or temperature events, and automated power budget control manages power budgets according to power source (PCIe or 4/6 pin Molex connector). When the budget is exceeded, PoE power is interrupted to prevent damage to connected devices.
Smart PoE management
PCIe-GIE72/74’s easy-to-use utility and APIs provide real-time PoE status monitoring of device class, voltage, current, wattage, and temperature. PoE power can be remotely switched on and off, PoE port priority and thermal thresholds remotely set, and possible failure predicted, all reducing operating costs and circumventing downtime.
