KY-FGF-II-COF

Komodo II Quad CoF is the best-in-class Frame Grabber, supporting the CoaXPress-over-Fiber (CoF) v2.1 standard. It can receive video streams from up to 4 CoaXPress-over-Fiber (CoF) v2.1 links in single, dual or quad modes.

The board offers a DDR4 frame buffer system and up to 50 Gbps through optical interfaces. A high-speed 8-lane Gen 3.0 PCI express interface allows fast data transfer between optical links and computer memory.
A GPIO connector enables machine control signals such as triggers, timers, shaft-encoders, exposure control and general I/O along with video stream acquisition.

All of these features make the Komodo II CXP over Fiber Frame Grabber ideal for a wide range of applications, including network processing and security, computing and storage, instrumentation, broadcast, defense, and aerospace.
