Camera Link Video Splitter


Vivid Engineering has announced a new product based on the Camera Link interface standard. CLV-401 Camera Link Video Splitter interfaces one Camera Link camera to two frame grabbers using standard Camera Link cables. This arrangement enables the addition of a second frame grabber for functions such as camera setup, secondary/parallel processing, and monitoring.

One frame grabber acts as master (i.e. primary) and provides control and communications to the camera. The secondary (slave) frame grabber receives camera video data only.

The CLV-401 supports the Camera Link "base" configuration. "Medium" configuration applications are supported using two CLV-401s. Multiple CLV-401s may be cascaded to support four or eight frame grabbers.

The CLV-401 Camera Link Video Splitter is housed in a sturdy, compact aluminum enclosure and is well suited for industrial environments.
