Small-form 4K mono scanning
Compact mechanics and selectable mono imaging define MV-CL042-B1NM. A 4096 × 2 CMOS array with 3.5 × 3.5 µm pixels sits behind a C-mount in a 29 mm × 44 mm × 59 mm body. The camera uses 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet at 2500 Mbit/s, with 1000 Mbit/s Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet retained as compatible network modes.
At full resolution, Mono 8 runs at 75.4 kHz in 1-Line and 63 kHz in 2-TDI; Mono 10/12 reaches 37.7 kHz in either mode. Reducing the region of interest to 2044 pixels or below raises Mono 8 1-Line operation to 105 kHz. These choices support space-constrained surface inspection where the useful object width, bit depth and travel speed can be balanced in configuration.
MV-CL042-B1NC shares its enclosure, C-mount, resolution and pixel pitch but records color, reaching 75.4 kHz with full-resolution Bayer BRGG 8 and 126 kHz with a reduced region of interest. MV-CL042-91GM uses larger 7 µm pixels and an M42*1.0 mount, with 80 kHz high-bandwidth Gigabit Ethernet operation. MV-CL044-91NM adds a 4096 × 4 array and 4-TDI while retaining 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet.

Selection and applications
Compact 4K mono inspection. C-mount 2-TDI acquisition. Reduced-width scanning at 105 kHz.
Minimum kit: Build around the MV-CL042-B1NM camera, a C-mount line-scan lens, a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet cable and receiver, and a suitable camera power source.
Nearby in the range: MV-CL042-B1NC — Prefer it when color capture is needed in the same C-mount housing.; MV-CL042-91GM — Prefer it for 7 µm pixels and an M42*1.0 mount.; MV-CL044-91NM — Prefer it for a 4096 × 4 array with 4-TDI..

FAQ
What are the full-resolution Mono 8 rates of MV-CL042-B1NM?
At the complete 4096-pixel width, Mono 8 reaches 75.4 kHz in 1-Line mode and 63 kHz in 2-TDI. Mono 10/12 is listed at 37.7 kHz for either acquisition mode, so bit depth and mode both affect available speed.
How is 105 kHz obtained from the MV-CL042-B1NM camera?
The 105 kHz figure applies to Mono 8 in 1-Line mode after the region of interest is reduced to 2044 pixels or below. It is not the full-width rate; full-resolution Mono 8 tops out at 75.4 kHz in 1-Line.
What line-scan optics attach directly to the MV-CL042-B1NM?
The camera has a C-mount and a 4096 × 2 mono array with 3.5 µm pixels. Choose a C-mount line-scan lens whose coverage matches the sensor line and whose resolving performance supports the required sampling across the object.
Which Ethernet speeds can MV-CL042-B1NM negotiate?
The primary link is 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, stated as 2500 Mbit/s. Compatibility extends to 1000 Mbit/s Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet, although available transport bandwidth falls at those lower link speeds.
Why use MV-CL044-91NM instead of the compact MV-CL042-B1NM?
MV-CL042-B1NM is the smaller C-mount model with 4096 × 2 resolution and 3.5 µm pixels. MV-CL044-91NM provides 4096 × 4 with 7 µm pixels, adds 4-TDI, supports PoE and reaches 160 kHz after a reduced region of interest.
