5 MP applications and neighbors
Five-megapixel global exposure over Gigabit Ethernet is the operating profile of MV-CT2MG0050/G. The monochrome Stacked BSI CMOS sensor produces 2448 × 2048 from a 2/3 in format with 3.45 × 3.45 µm pixels. It reaches 59.2 fps in Mono 8 when lossless compression is enabled, and its high-sensitivity setting permits exposure from 5 µs to 10 sec.
The 2448 × 2048 frame supports dimensional checks and small-feature inspection where the 3.2 MP class does not provide enough samples. A global shutter and triggered exposure allow moving parts to be captured at a repeatable machine position. C-mount optics cover the 2/3 in sensor, while PoE, an IP67 enclosure and a –30 °C to 60 °C working range simplify installation around production equipment.
MV-CT2MG0032/G trades sampling for speed, delivering 2048 × 1536 at 77.5 fps. MV-CT2MG0089/G moves upward to 4096 × 2160 but runs at 32.5 fps. For a local USB connection, MV-CT2MU0050/G retains 2448 × 2048 and increases the ceiling to 80 fps. MV-CT2MG0050/G is the networked midpoint when 5 MP detail and PoE matter more than either neighboring rate extreme.

Minimum kit: MV-CT2MG0050/G, a C-mount lens, an 8-pin M12 X-Code Gigabit Ethernet cable, and a PoE source or 9–24 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CT2MG0032/G — Prefer 2048 × 1536 when the higher 77.5 fps rate is needed; MV-CT2MG0089/G — Prefer 4096 × 2160 when 32.5 fps meets the inspection cycle; MV-CT2MU0050/G — Prefer USB 3.0 for the same resolution at up to 80 fps.

FAQ
Which suggested lenses match the 2/3 in MV-CT2MG0050/G sensor?
MVL-KF1628M-12MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP are suggested. Both use C-mount and provide image-circle coverage for the 2/3 in sensor. Their 12 MP and 25 MP optical classes exceed the camera's 2448 × 2048 output, while their focal lengths address different scene widths.
What link configuration supports the stated 59.2 fps rate?
The 59.2 fps maximum is specified at 2448 × 2048 in Mono 8 with lossless compression enabled. Data is carried by 1 Gbit/s Gigabit Ethernet through an 8-pin M12 X-Code connector. The interface can also operate with Fast Ethernet, which provides a lower transport rate.
What power options are available for this 5 MP GigE camera?
MV-CT2MG0050/G accepts PoE or an external input from 9 V DC to 24 V DC. Typical consumption is 1.6 W at 24 V DC under the stated condition. The 8-pin M8 A-Code connector carries power and I/O, while the M12 X-Code connection is the Ethernet data path.
How short can exposure be in the camera's sensitivity modes?
High full well capacity operation spans 30 µs to 10 sec with gain up to 12.8 dB. High-sensitivity operation starts at 5 µs and allows gain up to 24 dB. The sensor remains global shutter in both cases, and Trigger Width plus Trigger Controlled exposure are supported.
When should the USB version be considered instead of this model?
MV-CT2MU0050/G has the same 2448 × 2048 global-shutter format but uses USB 3.0 and reaches 80 fps. MV-CT2MG0050/G reaches 59.2 fps and uses Gigabit Ethernet with PoE. The choice is therefore driven by required rate, host connection and power topology rather than resolution.
