Simplifying Machine Vision Deployments

Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) systems require high-speed cameras to inspect products on a fast-moving assembly line. Traditionally, these cameras required two cables: one for data (GigE Vision) and one for power.

The PoE Advantage

Industrial PCs equipped with PoE (Power over Ethernet) ports can deliver both gigabit data and power (up to 30W per port with PoE+) over a single standard Cat5e/Cat6 cable. This cuts cabling complexity in half, reducing points of failure and installation time.
