White Paper

CoaXPress 2.0 as an alternative to Camera Link

Camera Link and CoaXPress are used in applications that require high data rates or resolutions. However, upgrading to CoaXPress 2.0 brings higher performance and lower system costs. In our white paper, we cover the following topics, among others:

  • Camera Link and CoaXPress: two interfaces for high data rates

  • Detailed comparison of Camera Link and CoaXPress 2.0

  • What should be considered when upgrading?

To the CoaXPress White Paper

Some of the advantages of the Camera Link interface are:

  • Standardized camera/frame grabber integration with defined connectors, cables, data format, and control signals

  • Standardized cables - users can take advantage of competitive pricing

  • Easy handling of all current image data transmission requirements thanks to high data rate capability
