Tips for selecting suitable PC cards

If the on-board host controller of the PC is already allocated with peripherals, then the use of dedicated PC cards is recommended to avoid disturbances.

Key considerations when making your selection:

  • Use tested and approved drivers from the manufacturer.

  • Dedicated chipsets on PC cards can save computing power.

  • Some PC cards supply power directly to the camera, saving additional cables and possibly power supplies.

Our configuration tools provide help in selecting the right interface for your system.
