The Imaging Source DMK 38GX541-a Monochrome GigE PoE Industrial Camera

Highlights

The Imaging Source DMK 38GX541-a Monochrome GigE PoE Industrial Camera is a 20.3 MP machine-vision camera built around the Sony IMX541 Pregius S CMOS sensor. It captures square-format 4,504 × 4,504 monochrome images at up to 5 fps with 2.74 µm pixels and a global shutter.

Designed for demanding industrial inspection and automation, the DMK 38GX541-a combines GigE Vision connectivity, Power over Ethernet, external trigger and strobe I/O, and a C-mount optical interface in a robust 29 × 44 × 75 mm housing. Advanced synchronization and acquisition features support multi-camera and time-sensitive machine-vision systems.
