Frame Grabber Cards

Frame Grabber Cards

Our frame grabber cards are built for machine vision and image capture applications that need stable, high-bandwidth camera connectivity within an industrial PC or embedded system. We supply PCIe frame grabber cards for interfaces including GigE Vision, USB Vision and 10GigE Vision, with options such as PoE, multi-port camera support and intelligent capture cards for vision-led automation, inspection and AI workloads.

If you are specifying a vision system and need help matching the card to your camera interface, bandwidth or processing platform, our team is here to help.

The most important starting point is the camera itself. Frame grabber cards are available for interfaces including GigE Vision, USB Vision and 10GigE Vision, and specialist camera standards such as Camera Link and CoaXPress are also relevant in this category. Matching the card to the camera interface first helps narrow down the right options quickly.

A PoE frame grabber card is a good option when you want the card to provide both data connectivity and power to compatible cameras over the same cable. That can help simplify cabling in machine vision and inspection systems, especially where multiple cameras are being installed. Our range includes PoE, PoE+ and PoE++ models, including multi-port options.

A lot depends on the data rate, cable arrangement and camera type. GigE Vision can suit many standard vision applications, USB Vision can be attractive where USB camera connectivity is preferred, and 10GigE Vision is better aligned with higher-bandwidth imaging tasks. The best choice is usually the one that fits the camera output and the amount of image data the system needs to move reliably.

They are often used as part of wider vision systems that support automation, inspection and AI workloads. In practice, the frame grabber handles the camera-side capture and transfer, while the host system processes the image data for analysis, inference or decision-making. Some cards in our range are specifically positioned for intelligent vision workloads.
