Connectors

The Nano 10G has two connectors:

  • A single RJ45 Ethernet connector for control and video data transmitted to/from the host computer Gigabit NIC. The Genie Nano 10G also supports Power over Ethernet (PoE); an appropriate PoE Class 0 or Class 3 power source device (such as a powered computer NIC, a powered Ethernet switch, or an Ethernet power injector) is required. See Ruggedized RJ45 Ethernet Cables for secure cables.

  • A 10-pin I/O connector for auxiliary DC power source and for general I/O signals including trigger and strobe. The connector supports a retention latch, while the Nano 10G case supports thumbscrews. Teledyne DALSA provides optional cables (see Optional Cable Accessories).

See 10-Pin IO Connector Pinout for connector pinout specifications.

CAUTION

Connect power via the I/O or PoE, not both. Although the has protection, differences in ground levels may cause operation issues or electrical faults, resulting in camera faults or failure.

The following figure of the Genie Nano 10G back end shows connector and LED locations. See Mechanical Specifications for details on the connectors and camera mounting dimensions.
