Where the twelve-megapixel GigE option fits
A 4024 × 3036 Sony IMX226 sensor places MV-CU120-10GM in the high-detail, moderate-rate part of the compact GigE range. The 1/1.7-inch CMOS device uses a rolling shutter and delivers 9.7 fps. Its combination of small housing, C-mount optics, and twelve-megapixel-class sampling is intended for scenes where fine feature separation is more important than capturing rapid mechanical motion.
The camera can support fiducial measurement, detailed component-presence checks, stationary surface imaging, and mark verification on indexed equipment. Gigabit Ethernet permits a transmission distance of 100 m, separating the imaging point from the host when required. PoE support or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply covers two wiring approaches, and the 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm body fits restricted spaces.
MV-CU120-10GC shares the Sony IMX226, 4024 × 3036 raster, and 9.7 fps rate, with colour explicitly listed for chromatic inspection. MV-CU120-10UM moves the same resolution to USB 3.0 at 29.2 fps and outputs Mono 8. MV-CU200-20GM raises the raster to 5120 × 3840 on GigE, but reduces maximum full-frame rate to 5.9 fps.

Minimum kit: The minimum setup is MV-CU120-10GM, a 1/1.7-inch C-mount lens such as MVL-KF5024M-25MP, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and PoE or a 9 V DC to 24 V DC supply.
Nearby in the range: MV-CU120-10GC — Prefer it when 4024 × 3036 colour images are required over GigE.; MV-CU120-10UM — Prefer it for Mono 8 capture at 29.2 fps over USB 3.0.; MV-CU200-20GM — Prefer it when 5120 × 3840 sampling outweighs the lower 5.9 fps rate..

FAQ
Which listed lenses fit the MV-CU120-10GM optical format?
The suggested C-mount choices are MVL-KF1224M-25MP and MVL-KF5024M-25MP. Each has a 19.3 mm image size, covering the camera's 1/1.7-inch sensor, and a 25 MP resolution class above the approximately 12.22 MP camera raster.
What is the usable GigE cable distance for this camera?
MV-CU120-10GM lists a 100 m transmission distance over Gigabit Ethernet. That supports a distributed machine layout with the host away from the imaging station, provided the link and network interface are sized for 4024 × 3036 frames at up to 9.7 fps.
Does MV-CU120-10GM support a powered Ethernet link?
Yes, PoE support is listed. The alternative camera input accepts 9 V DC to 24 V DC. Typical consumption is 1.78 W, so either supply path can be sized from that load and selected to match the machine's network and cabinet wiring.
What does rolling shutter mean for high-detail measurement?
The Sony IMX226 is a rolling-shutter CMOS sensor. Use a stopped target, an indexed stage, or lighting timed so motion during readout does not affect the required geometry. The 4024 × 3036 raster then serves fine-feature analysis rather than high-speed motion capture.
How should the operating environment be controlled?
The working range is 0 °C to 50 °C and 20% to 95% RH, with an IP30 enclosure. Storage is specified from -30 °C to 70 °C. Prevent condensation and provide mechanical protection where the camera could encounter dust or liquid.
