UK USB Frame Grabbers
USB3 Frame Grabbers for Vision Cameras and Multi-Camera Systems
A USB frame grabber is a PCIe USB expansion card built for cameras rather than peripherals: its ports are shared between dedicated host controllers, so several USB3 Vision cameras stream together instead of queuing on one bus. Available with four to eight USB 3 Type-A ports, including cards that carry an NVIDIA Jetson module to run AI on the camera feeds.
Options include USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports on the AI cards, jumper-selectable current for bus-powered cameras and software power switching on each port, suited to inspection cells, robot guidance, kiosks and lab imaging where a USB card for cameras must keep every stream running.
Speak to a frame grabber specialist to match the port count, controllers and host slot to your cameras.

What to Specify in a USB 3.0 PCIe Card
Our machine vision specialists specify every USB frame grabber against the cameras, the host system and the software that will use the images. These are the choices we work through with you before recommending a card.
Controllers and Bandwidth
Cameras on separate host controllers stream at the same time; count how many run together, not just the ports.
Port Count
Four ports for a small cell, six to eight for multi-camera inspection from one PCIe slot.
Onboard AI
Cards with a Jetson module run the vision model on the card and pass results to the host.
Host Slot
Check the PCIe lanes and bracket height against the free slot in the PC or edge system.
