PCIe-expanded multi-camera control

Card expansion distinguishes MV-VC532x within the Core i3-12100 controller tier. It combines seven GigE ports, including four PoE, with one PCIe ×16, one PCIe ×8 and two PCIe ×4 interfaces. When the ×8 interface is occupied, the ×16 interface provides half its bandwidth. Two SATA 3.0 connections and one M.2 NVME interface extend storage options under unactivated Windows 10.

This structure suits a multi-camera station that needs Ethernet acquisition plus application-specific PCIe hardware. Eight isolated inputs, twelve isolated outputs, eight isolated low-side driver outputs and four bidirectional differential lines connect machine devices. Four USB 2.0, four USB 3.0 and one internal USB 2.0 interface cover peripherals, while HDMI and VGA provide simultaneous independent 1920 × 1080 output at 60 Hz.

MV-VC531x uses the same Core i3-12100 class and seven-port network layout in a 105.2 mm-high enclosure, half the 210 mm height of MV-VC532x. MV-VC552x retains the expanded chassis and slot topology but moves to Core i5-12400 and identifies a Q670 chip. MV-VC572x takes the same expansion pattern to Core i7-12700, preserving the choice between processor tier and card capacity.

Overview

A vision controller from the top VC5000 series on the Intel Core i3-12100 processor. Seven Gigabit ports, four of them with PoE, so a camera needs a single cable. RAM is chosen by part number: 8, 16 or 32 GB; the 2T suffix adds a 2 TB hard disk for the image archive.

An expandable Q670 chassis: four PCIe slots (×16, ×8 and two ×4), an M.2 NVMe socket and a separate 24 V rail for a graphics card. 210 mm high, 7.5 kg. Choose it when the controller has to host a frame grabber, a second NIC or a GPU for deep learning.

Selection and applications

PoE multi-camera acquisition with PCIe expansion. Vision processing with an added graphics card. Mixed machine control through isolated I/O.

Minimum kit: Build around MV-VC532x with GigE cameras and mount-matched lenses, GigE cables, selected PCIe cards, a 4-pin 24 VDC system feed, and a 2-pin 24 VDC graphics-card feed when used.

Nearby in the range: MV-VC531x — Prefer it for its 105.2 mm-high enclosure with seven GigE ports, including four PoE interfaces.; MV-VC552x — Prefer it for the same slot pattern with Core i5-12400 and Q670.; MV-VC572x — Prefer it for the expanded chassis with Core i7-12700..

FAQ

What PCIe interfaces are available for acquisition or processing cards?

MV-VC532x provides one PCIe ×16, one PCIe ×8 and two PCIe ×4 interfaces. If the ×8 interface is used, the ×16 interface supplies half of its bandwidth, so card placement should account for the bandwidth each device requires.

How does MV-VC532x connect and power several Ethernet cameras?

Seven GigE interfaces are present, including four with PoE. Four cameras can therefore use the powered network ports, while three further GigE connections remain available for non-PoE camera or network traffic.

Which power feeds are required for an expanded controller?

The system uses a 24 VDC 4-pin power interface, and a separate 24 VDC 2-pin interface supplies a graphics card. Typical figures are 384 W for system power and 228 W for the graphics-card feed.

What storage interfaces accompany the available PCIe slots?

Two SATA 3.0 interfaces and one M.2 NVME interface are listed. This gives the expanded chassis both SATA and NVME connection routes while the PCIe ×16, ×8 and ×4 interfaces remain available for other cards.

How does graphics-card use change the thermal boundary?

With a graphics card, the stated operating range reaches 0 °C to 45 °C. Without one, the upper entry reaches 50 °C for the Core i3-12100 configuration. The enclosure measures 302.3 × 248 × 210 mm and weighs approximately 7.5 kg.
