Gigabit Ethernet
Goldeye G cameras are equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet interface.
GigE
GigE is the abbreviation for Gigabit Ethernet.
All Allied Vision Goldeye G cameras are GigE Vision compliant cameras with Gigabit
Ethernet interface. Allied Vision Goldeye G cameras work with standard Gigabit
Ethernet hardware and cables, and serve cable lengths up to 100 m.
GigE Vision
GigE Vision is an interface standard for digital machine vision cameras, developed
and maintained by the Automated Imaging Association (AIA). It is built on the
Gigabit Ethernet communication protocol and widely supported in the industrial
imaging industry.
GenICam
GenICam is the command structure for the GigE Vision camera control. GenICam is
administered by the European Machine Vision Association (EMVA).
GenICam establishes a common camera control interface so that third-party
soft-ware can communicate with cameras from various manufacturers without
customization. It is incorporated as part of the GigE Vision standard.
Gigabit Ethernet port
The Gigabit Ethernet port conforms to the 1000BASE-T standard for Gigabit
Ethernet. We recommend using Cat 5e compatible cabling and connectors or
better for best performance.
