Launch of our new cost-effective CoaXPress frame grabber
This month Active Silicon reveals their latest frame grabber – the FireBird Single CoaXPress Low Profile board. Maintaining all the industry-leading features of a high-performance FireBird board, this newest arrival has been optimized for cost so it has wider appeal for a greater range of applications. It is ideal for use with the latest range of small, lower-priced single-link CoaXPress cameras. CoaXPress in this combination offers a more affordable solution with all the advantages of higher bandwidths, real-time triggering, long cable lengths and the robustness and high reliability of a dedicated vision standard.
The low-profile design of this FireBird Single CoaXPress frame grabber allows the board to be used in small 2U enclosures; a full-height bracket is also available for standard PC cases. It is a 4-lane Gen2 PCI Express board and is fitted with a Micro-BNC connector, the latest standard for CoaXPress, which also supports PoCXP. Comprehensive I/O is provided, including front panel I/O.
