Prosilica's GX-Series, a new range of compact, high-performance, Gigabit Ethernet cameras double the speed of GigE Vision, making them the fastest GigE cameras on the market. The GX-Series features two Gigabit Ethernet ports configured as a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) to provide a sustained data rate of up to 240 MB/s. Link aggregation is a technology that groups multiple Ethernet ports so that they act as a single port. The host computer sees a GX-Series camera as though there is only one GigE cable connected. Three models will initially be released: GX1050 (1 megapixel, 120 frames/s), GX1660 (2 megapixel, 60 frames/s) and GX1910 (2 megapixel HD resolution, 60 frames/s). These will be followed by 4- and 8-megapixel models in 2010.
