Euresys Coaxlink Quad CXP-12 Value CoaXPress Frame Grabber

Euresys Coaxlink Quad CXP-12 Value Frame Grabber

The Euresys Coaxlink Quad CXP-12 Value is a four-connection CoaXPress CXP-12 frame grabber designed for high-bandwidth machine vision and image acquisition applications. Supporting up to four area scan or line scan cameras, the board provides up to 5,000 MB/s aggregate camera bandwidth and a PCIe 3.0 x8 host interface with up to 6,700 MB/s sustained bus bandwidth. The Coaxlink Quad CXP-12 Value also features Power over CoaXPress (PoCXP), 4 GB onboard memory, 20 digital I/O lines, and advanced camera triggering and synchronization for demanding industrial imaging applications. Offering the same core CXP-12 connectivity and acquisition bandwidth as the Coaxlink Quad CXP-12, the Value model provides a cost-effective alternative for applications that do not require the standard model’s CustomLogic FPGA programming capability.

Euresys frame grabbers provide high-performance image acquisition for demanding machine vision, industrial inspection, automation, and scientific imaging applications. Available for CoaXPress, CoaXPress-over-Fiber, and Camera Link cameras, Euresys frame grabbers combine high-speed data transfer with advanced triggering, synchronization, and camera control.
