Heat Dissipation
XIMEA strives to offer the smallest cameras with the highest performance. Although the cameras are first in terms of power
efficiency, the high packing density of components can lead to elevated temperatures, and an adequate dissipation of this heat
must be ensured. The cameras rely on adequate surface contact with a thermal mass (tripod, lens, heat sink) of sufficient size for
heat dissipation and this must be provided ensured by the user.

Cable have marked ends. It is important to connect the end marked “CAM” to the camera and end marked “BOB” to
host or adapter. Swapped orientation can cause damage to camera. It is important that the power is turned off when
inserting/detaching the cable. Connecting camera to powered host can cause destruction of camera. For detaching cable the
connector need to be unlocked, otherwise connector soldering may be damaged.
