Some companies offer GigE connectivity boards that are smaller than Pleoras iPORT PT1000-VB (55 mm x 55 mm). Doesnt this mean theyre easier to design into a camera?
The iPORT PT1000-VB is Pleoras venerable off-the-shelf product for in-camera solutions. Since its introduction in 2005, the very cost-effective iPORT PT1000-VB has helped many of our camera partners take their cameras to market quickly and successfully. Pleora also offers its IP engines as fully customizable boards. Weve provided one of our customers with a custom board thats 50 mm x 30 mm, or 1,500 mm2 making it one of the smallest, full-featured in-camera connectivity boards today. The second generation off-the-shelf in-camera board from Pleora, the iPORT NTx-Mini, which will be introduced in early 2008, is 42 mm x 42 mm, or 1,764 mm2. This board is smaller than any other standard board on the market.
