Throughput, tasks and model choices
High-rate monochrome capture over a sealed network link defines MV-CT1MG0016/G. A 1/2.9 in Stacked BSI CMOS sensor with 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels and a global shutter records 1440 × 1080 px. Mono 8 reaches 180 fps with lossless compression enabled, and the 8-pin M12 X-Code Gigabit Ethernet port supports PoE.
The camera suits moving-part presence, edge localization and orientation inspection where 1440 × 1080 px provides enough detail at a short cycle time. Exposure starts at 23 µs, while Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled modes connect acquisition to machinery. Binning or decimation at 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 offers lower-data modes, and IP67 protection supports correctly sealed process-side placement.
MV-CT1MG0004/G increases rate to 200.5 fps but reduces the frame to 720 × 540 px. MV-CT1MG0020/G records 1624 × 1240 px at 177.3 fps, a small speed trade for more sampling. MV-CT0MU0016/G matches 1440 × 1080 px over USB 3.0 and reaches 249 fps but is IP40. Select MV-CT1MG0016/G when PoE, Gigabit Ethernet and IP67 outweigh the USB rate advantage.

FAQ
What C-mount optics are suggested for MV-CT1MG0016/G imaging?
The listed C-mount lenses are MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Their image sizes cover the camera's 1/2.9 in sensor. The 12 MP and 25 MP lens classes also exceed the 1440 × 1080 px image, satisfying the documented coverage and nominal detail checks.
Can MV-CT1MG0016/G operate from PoE alone on its network link?
Yes. PoE is supported through the 8-pin M12 X-Code Gigabit Ethernet interface, which carries 1000 Mbit/s data and is compatible with 100 Mbit/s. Typical draw is 1.6 W at 12 V DC. Separate power from 9 V DC to 24 V DC can instead enter through the M8 connector.
What is the full-frame motion rate of MV-CT1MG0016/G?
Mono 8 output reaches 180 fps at 1440 × 1080 px with lossless compression enabled. The sensor has a global shutter and can expose from 23 µs. Trigger Width and Trigger Controlled operation allow the acquisition instant to follow a part sensor or machine timing signal.
Which sampling controls are available in MV-CT1MG0016/G?
Binning and decimation each support 1 × 1, 2 × 2 and 4 × 4. Monochrome output is available in 8, 10, 10Packed, 12 and 12Packed formats. Horizontal and vertical reverse image output is also supported, allowing orientation and data depth to be set before processing.
What sealing assumptions apply to MV-CT1MG0016/G installation?
The IP67 rating depends on proper lens, lens cap and wiring installation. The camera operates from –30 °C to 60 °C at 20% RH to 95% RH without condensation. Its enclosure measures 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm and has an approximate mass of 124 g.
