COMPACT CHEETAH CMOS CAMERA
SERIES WITH POE INTERFACE

Compact CHEETAH CMOS camera series with PoE interface

May 18, 2019, BOCA RATON, FLORIDA  

The Imperx Cheetah series has expanded to include

12-MP, 9-MP, 7-MP, 5-MP, and 3-MP CMOS cameras using 2nd and 3rd Generation Sony Pregius image sensors. The cameras operate with a Power over Ethernet (POE) interface to simplify camera installation. The ruggedized design with wide operational temperature range and automatic exposure/gain controls also make these cameras attractive for surveillance, defense and aerospace applications.

The cameras support resolutions from 3 megapixels to 12 megapixels in optical formats ranging from 1/1.8” to 1.1” with 8, 10, and 12-bit outputs. The Sony Pregius sensors have global shutters with 3.45-micron and 4.5-micron square pixels delivering high sensitivity and wide dynamic range up to 80dB. Exceptional thermal design allows 16 second or longer exposure times without the need for forced air cooling.

The compact cameras are only 37mm wide by 62 mm long and ideal for motion capture and high-quality images in space-restricted applications. The cameras are GenICam™ compliant, simplifying software development.
