Vecow PE-9000 Intel E610-XAIT2 10GbE 802.3at PoE+ Frame Grabber Cards with Extended Temperature

Many 10GbE camera systems sit in unheated cabinets, roadside housings and outdoor inspection stations, where the card in the host sees much the same cold and heat as the cameras. The Vecow PE-9000 series is built for that envelope: 10GbE PoE+ frame grabber cards on the Intel E610-XAIT2 controller, rated from -40 °C to 70 °C in operation and from -40 °C to 85 °C in storage. We supply each card configured and tested, fitted in the host with the drivers installed and the PoE budget checked against the cameras.

Every PE-9000 card connects to the host over PCI Express Gen 4 x4. The Intel E610-XAIT2 runs each RJ45 port at 10 Gbps, 5 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 1 Gbps or 100 Mbps, so a project can mix 10GbE cameras with NBASE-T and Gigabit models on the same card. The controllers support jumbo frames up to 9728 bytes, PXE boot, Intel Virtualization Technology and Intel Ethernet power management, with 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet on idle links and IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol for time-aligned capture. Each port supports IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at and supplies up to 25.5 W at 48 V DC, with PoE on/off control, and PoE power comes from one 4-pin 12 V connector.

The series has two models. The PE-9002 carries two 10GbE PoE+ ports on one Intel E610-XAIT2 controller, which suits a stereo pair or a two-camera inspection cell. The PE-9004 carries four 10GbE PoE+ ports on two Intel E610-XAIT2 controllers, for four-view inspection or a multi-camera traffic or perimeter position served by one host. Both models share the controller family, bracket and environmental rating, so a project can typically start with two cameras and move to four without changing the driver set in the host image. Where cameras need more than 25.5 W per port, the Vecow PE-6004H series moves to 802.3bt PoE++ on 2.5GbE ports.

Both PE-9000 cards use a full-height bracket and have the same environmental envelope: -40 °C to 70 °C in operation and 5% to 95% humidity non-condensing. Vecow lists Windows 11 and Linux support, and the datasheet shows CE and FCC under EMC with the RoHS mark. Typical deployments include machine vision on production lines, outdoor inspection and video streaming from 10GbE cameras, where the extended temperature range can reduce the heating or cooling the enclosure needs.
