The latest addition to our series is the high-performance, yet cost-effective Camera Link frame grabber, the FireBird 1xCLD-2PE4. It supports all configurations from Base, Dual-Base to 80-Bit over 10 taps (Deca).  As well as its two CL-Mini (HDR/SDR) connectors with PoCL it offers a comprehensive D‑sub connector with opto-isolated TTL and RS-422 input and output control lines mounted on the same end panel.

Like all FireBird grabbers, the FDB-1xCLD-2PE4 will smoothly integrate with all major imaging software libraries and a broad set of cameras through full compliance with the GenICam standard.  In addition, the proven PHX SDK is available for Windows, Linux, QNX and Mac OS X.
