Frame Grapper with Fiber

Active Silicon has introduced its latest FireBird capture card, the 4xCOF-12 frame grabber, which leverages the proven CoaXPress FireBird technology and is designed for use with fiber optic cables.

Fiber optics offer significant advantages for high-speed image processing, especially over long distances or in electrically noisy environments. With the appropriate choice of cables and transceivers, cameras can be located kilometers away from the frame grabber and PC. The FireBird CoaXPress over Fiber 4xCOF-12 features a QSFP+ port that captures image data at speeds of up to 40 Gbps. It is fully GenICam-compliant and employs "ActiveDMA" technology for rapid data transfer without CPU intervention. Additionally, it provides data forwarding capabilities to distribute image processing across multiple PCs. Engineers can consider the robust Oncilla Machine Vision Computer with an integrated FireBird 4xCOF-12 frame grabber for a complete vision system.
