Compliance, safety, and intended use
Bare board and open housing cameras
Bare board and open housing cameras are designed for integration and are
delivered with open camera back or without housing on customer's request.
Housing design is critical for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of the camera.
Avoid electromagnetic interferences
Interface cables, power cables, and I/O cables are sensitive to electromagnetic
interference.
• Use shielded cables only.
• We recommend using cables offered by Allied Vision.
• Avoid coiling.
• We recommend using GPIOs only in environments with low electromagnetic
interference.
Moreover, avoid unnecessary bending to prevent damage to the cables.
