mvHYPERION-CLm

  • Digital PCI Express® x4 frame grabber
  • Different interfaces for CameraLink cameras
  • Trigger and flash control for cameras on-board
  • mvHYPERION-CLm/Cell for Cell/B.E. systems

The mvHYPERION-CLf is a frame grabber for CameraLink cameras. Due to PCI Express® x4 the mvHYPERION-CLf offers a maximum capture bandwidth of 1 GB/s. The frame grabber allows operation of one camera with FULL or MEDIUM interface; the model mvHYPERION-CLm two cameras with BASE interface or one MEDIUM camera.
