10 Reasons to be Excited About 10GigE
#1 Best Speed and Distance Combination
10 Gigabit Ethernet, or 10GigE, supports 10 Gbit/s over cable lengths over 80m without repeaters or optical extensions. This makes 10GigE ideal for applications needing high bandwidth over long distances.Figure 1. Bandwidth vs cable length. 10 GigE provides both high bandwidth and a long maximum cable length without repeaters or optical extensions.
#2 Leverage the latest Sensors, No Workarounds Required
With 10 Gbit/s of bandwidth, 10Gige enables users to take full advantage of the latest high-performance sensors with their higher resolution, frame rates and dynamic range.
The Sony Pregius sensor line offers a number of examples of this. See chart below.(
In response to GigE's limited bandwidth, some camera manufacturers have turned to complicated link aggregation systems, latency inducing compression, and short, buffered bursts. With 10GigE, there is no need for these workarounds.)
#3 Quick & Simple to Set-Up
10GigE cameras are quick to set up. Consumer motherboards supporting 10GigE are now available. With this new hardware, all you need is a cable. Unlike Camera Link or CoaXpress, there’s no need for frame grabbers or additional interface cards.”#4 Reliable
Image data is only useful once it arrives in host memory. 10GigE offers packet resend to prevent data loss by detecting and correcting errors in real-time. By contrast, Camera Link requires expensive cables to manage bit errors.#5 Lower Cost
#6 Low Latency
The superior speed of 10 Gigabit Ethernet delivers a significant reduction in latency compared to gigabit hardware, which introduces 50-125 μs of latency with each IP forwarding step. 10GigE reduces this latency to just 5-50 μs, making it ideal for lag-free, real-time video applications such as motion-tracking, closed-hatch driving, virtual reality, and telemedicine.#7 Backwards Compatible
#8 Efficient CPU Usage
#9 Widely Adopted & GigE Vision Compliant
#10 Higher quality, more competitive prices, faster delivery.
