Omron STC-MBS642POE Small GigE Vision 6.4 MP Monochrome Area Scan Camera with Sony IMX178, 1/1.8", PoE, C-Mount
*Please note tariff fee is included in price*
Omron STC-MBS642POE 6.4 MP monochrome GigE Vision area scan camera with Sony IMX178 1/1.8" CMOS sensor, PoE interface, C-mount, and up to 17.4 fps for precise industrial imaging.
NDAA CompliantThe Omron STC-MBS642POE is a high-resolution 6.4 MP monochrome GigE Vision area scan camera built around the Sony IMX178 CMOS sensor, providing 3,072 (H) × 2,048 (V) effective pixels with a 1/1.8" optical format and 2.4 µm pixel size. With a maximum frame rate of 17.4 fps and support for Mono8, Mono10, Mono12, Mono10Packed, and Mono12Packed image formats, it delivers detailed grayscale images suitable for demanding measurement and inspection tasks.
Designed for integration into industrial environments, this camera features a robust cased body, C-mount lens interface, and Power over Ethernet (IEEE802.3af) to simplify cabling and system design. Edge preset trigger and free-run modes, full-frame and ROI scanning, image flip options, and on-board functions such as auto exposure, auto gain, and defective pixel correction (up to 2,048 pixels) give system integrators the control needed to optimize performance in production lines, laboratories, and OEM equipment.
