Emergent Vision HS-4000 10GigE Digital Industrial Camera

Emergent Vision Technologies 10GigE Digital Industrial Camera

The HS-4000-RA is the new standard in Ultra Fast high speed imaging for industrial vision applications. Capable of 179 FPS at 4 megapixels, the HS-4000-RA is a breakthrough for the industry. With a global shutter and 10GigE interface-a world first for the vision industry-the HS-4000-RA sets unparalleled benchmark performance. The 10GigE interface is GenICam and GigE Vision compatible with the added benefit of a single connection using either SFP+ direct attach or fiber optic for additional length. The HS-4000-RA is available in either monochrome or color utilizing a 1” image format allowing for an extensive selection of optics, making the HS-4000-RA ultra-flexible to meet challenging industrial imaging applications.

What is 10GigE?

10GigE (a.k.a. 10 Gigabit Ethernet) is the successor to 1GigE (1 Gigabit Ethernet), which became the leading interface for machine vision applications from about 2008 on. 10GigE, as the successor, provides all the same benefits of 1GigE but with a ten-fold increase in data-rate, which leads to a ten-fold increase in transmitted frame rate or image resolution. 10GigE, as with 1GigE, is a cross-industry standard, which has been around for many years and is managed/produced by the IEEE 802.3 working group. The 10GigE standard is the state-of-art technology in any modern office IT and used for the simultaneous transmission of Voice-over-IP (VoIP) telephone communication, video conferencing and other data. Thus Telecom providers, data processing centers, industrial control units as well as security and defense installations utilize 10 Gigabit Ethernet as their default communication technology.  All Emergent 10GigE vision cameras are GenIcam and GigE Vision compliant.
