CV640F - Direct fiber optic output 1394B camera - Discontinued

The CV640F with 1394b-optical interface is a high-performance camera designed for applications requiring long cable length, highly flexible cabling, or EMI resistance. Operating at up to 120 frames per second at 640x480 resolution, this camera has the best price/performance in the market. Prosilica's fiber optic output cameras uniquely address difficult application demands. The "F" stands for 'fiber optic'.

Applications for the CV640F are wide and varied. In traffic monitoring, environmental imaging, robotic imaging, and many other applications, the long cable length, high-speed, and high-flex cabling are key features.

NOTE: This model has been discontinued. It is now available only so long as supplies last.
