Pleora Technologies, a supplier of high-performance video interfaces, has introduced the iPort SB-Gig and SB-U3 external frame grabbers that help imaging system manufacturers and integrators convert Sony block cameras into GigE Vision 2.0 or USB3 Vision cameras.
The external frame grabbers transmit video with low, consistent latency at high frame rates between Sony block cameras and computing platforms or display panels. The video, along with power and control data, is transmitted over Ethernet or USB 3.0 cabling to existing ports on the computer or display.
The iPort SB-GigE supports highly reliable, 1Gb/s data transfer rates, and allows manufacturers to make use of the flexible networking, extended reach, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) advantages of Gigabit Ethernet (GigE).
The iPort SB-U3 supports 2Gb/s data transfer rates, power over USB (PoUSB), and control over a USB 3.0 link. This is useful for applications that require higher bandwidth transmission over shorter distances.
