The new PoE daughterboard for uEye LE & SLE single-board cameras from IDS
IDS Imaging Development Systems expands its modular camera concept with a remote GigE PoE board (Daughterboard). It enables power supply and data transfer via a single cable, thereby facilitating the integration of motherboard board-level cameras from the GigE uEye LE and uEye SLE series. The motherboards are based on a flexible interface concept: Instead of a connector block, they feature a compact flat ribbon connector, allowing connection via a flexible cable to a remote interface electronics unit.
This principle allows sensors and optics to be placed in the housing independently of the power supply and data connection – an advantage particularly for individual or space-critical product designs. "With the new PoE daughterboard, we are once again significantly simplifying the use of our smallest single-board cameras. Power supply and data transmission can now be achieved using a single cable with an RJ45 connector – this makes integration more convenient for our customers and opens up additional freedom for individual housing concepts," explains Marcus Rembold, Product Owner at IDS.
Product overview: GigE uEye LE Rev.2/uEye SLE PoE Daughterboard
- Interface: Gigabit Ethernet with Power over Ethernet (PoE, IEEE 802.3af)
- Connector: RJ45 socket for single-cable operation (power supply + data transmission)
- Compatibility: Motherboard variants of the GigE uEye LE Rev. 2 and uEye SLE monitoring cameras
- Special features: Space-saving integration, reduced cabling, no additional power supply required
- Target applications: Customised housing concepts, space-critical designs, modular camera solutions
The new GigE PoE Daughterboard opens up a wide range of possibilities for developers and integrators to create space-saving yet powerful camera systems.
