KY-FGF-II-CLHS
Komodo II CLHS Frame Grabber is a high-performance yet low-cost frame grabber card supporting four SFP+ 10Gbps transceivers (optical). The card is based on powerful FPGA, 55Gbps throughput, and 4GB DDR4 SODIMM. A high-speed 8-lane Gen 3.0 PCI express interface allows fast video transfers between optical links and computer memory while a versatile GPIO with multi-standard support enables connection to external devices.
Full camera control and configuration are also supported by the host over PCIe interface.
The SFP+ interfaces are connected directly to FPGA device transceiver channels to minimize latency.
All of these features combine to make the Komodo II CLHS ideal for a wide range of applications.
