System Description System Structure The Komodo FXCL system consists of a CameraLink camera, an extender box (KY-CL2F) that translates the CameraLink interface to fiber optic interface and a Komodo Fiber frame grabber that is able to acquire video directly from fiber optic cables.
Each of the CL and SFP+ connectors is paired with a status LED and there is a system status LED (see 7.2 section describing the LED status). Each unit also has mount ears for an easy and secure installation on any flat surface. Komodo FXCL CameraLink™ over Fiber acquisition system Hardware Reference and Installation Guide...
Mechanical Specifications Essentials to get started To begin using your Komodo FXCL system, you must have the following: A computer with the following: Processor with an Intel 64-bit architecture, or equivalent.
