Where the low-resolution GigE model fits
A 126.5 fps ceiling at 720 × 540 makes MV-CU004-10GM the low-resolution, high-rate Gigabit Ethernet option in the lineup. The Sony IMX297 is a 1/2.9-inch CMOS sensor with a global shutter, so the camera is oriented toward rapid event capture rather than fine-detail coverage. Its C-mount body is 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm and weighs 100 g.
This combination suits presence, position and occupancy decisions where a small image is sufficient and the target moves between acquisitions. The global shutter supports consistent geometry on moving parts, while one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated I/O provide line-side timing. Gigabit Ethernet is also compatible with Fast Ethernet.
MV-CU004-10GC has the same 720 × 540 resolution and 126.5 fps rate while explicitly providing color output. MV-CU013-80GM increases the grid to 1280 × 1024 at 89.9 fps and states Mono output. MV-CU004-10GM is the choice when the smaller IMX297 image and higher acquisition rate take precedence over the added spatial detail of the 1.3 MP model.

Selection and applications
Rapid presence detection. Position checks on moving components. Hardware-timed Gigabit Ethernet capture.
Minimum kit: Combine the camera with a C-mount lens covering 1/2.9 inch, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and either optional PoE or a 9–24 V DC source.
Nearby in the range: MV-CU004-10GC — Prefer it when 720 × 540 imaging at 126.5 fps must include color.; MV-CU013-80GM — Prefer it when 1280 × 1024 Mono output is more important than the 126.5 fps rate..

FAQ
What type of moving inspection suits the MV-CU004-10GM frame rate?
The camera reaches 126.5 fps at 720 × 540 and uses a global-shutter CMOS sensor. That pairing fits rapid presence, position or counting decisions where the modest image grid contains enough detail and simultaneous exposure is useful for moving subjects.
Which optical mount is provided on this compact IMX297 camera?
MV-CU004-10GM provides a C-mount for its 1/2.9-inch Sony IMX297 sensor. The body is 29 mm square and 42 mm deep, so the selected lens should cover the sensor format while fitting the mechanical space around the camera.
What are the available powering arrangements for MV-CU004-10GM?
The accepted external range is 9–24 V DC, and PoE is optional. Typical draw is 2 W at 12 V DC. The network side uses Gigabit Ethernet with Fast Ethernet support, allowing cabling and power topology to be chosen together.
How can a machine controller exchange signals with this model?
A 6-pin P7 connector exposes one opto-isolated input, one opto-isolated output and one bidirectional non-isolated I/O. These connections provide the hardware path for an acquisition signal and a return status or control signal.
What ambient limits should be used for MV-CU004-10GM integration?
Specified operation is 0–50 °C and 20–95% RH. The enclosure rating is IP30, so the camera belongs in a controlled location with suitable protection from liquids and fine contamination. Its listed mass is 100 g.
