USB 3.1 Gen 2 10Gbps Alkeria’s high-speed next generation cameras
Pisa, ITALY – Oct. 21st, 2024
Alkeria, Italian machine vision camera manufacturer, after extensive research and development, is pleased to announce the first-ever European generation of cameras with USB 3.1 Gen 2 10Gbps interface. These innovative models represent the future of USB3 machine vision, addressing the growing demand for faster, higher-resolution sensors and interfaces capable of managing substantial data rates in today’s applications.
A quantum leap for machine vision
USB 3.1 Gen 2 offers significant advantages, primarily due to its higher data transfer rate. While USB 3.1 Gen 1 provides a usable bandwidth of up to 3.2Gbps, USB 3.1 Gen 2 increases that bandwidth to 10Gbps, reduces latency, enabling higher frame rates and smoother real-time image processing. Additionally, USB 3.1 Gen 2’s improved power delivery allows for more demanding camera setups, enhancing overall system performance and reliability.
Plug-and-play solution
USB 3.1 Gen 2 simplifies system integration by eliminating the need for additional hardware like dedicated boards of frame grabbers. Additionally, USB 3.1 Gen 2's improved power delivery allows for more demanding camera setups, enhancing overall system performance and reliability.
Going even farther
Next-generation fiber optic USB 3.1 Gen 2 cables offer significant advantages over traditional copper-based cables. With a maximum length of up to 20 meters, these cables allow for greater flexibility in system design without compromising signal quality.
Thanks to their superior signal integrity and resistance to electromagnetic interference, these cables ensure stable data transmission over longer distances, far surpassing the limitations of traditional copper-based USB cables.
