M.2 Video Capture Cards
M.2 Video Capture Cards for Compact Embedded Systems
An M.2 capture card adds HDMI, SDI, DVI or TVI capture to a compact embedded PC or edge AI system through an M.2 socket, where there is no room for a PCIe card. Available in 2242, 2260 and 2280 sizes, with single and multi-channel models from 1080p60 to 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 at 4K.
Options include two and four-input cards, loop-through on selected models and Linux support for embedded builds, suited to medical devices, vehicle systems and edge AI boxes that need video in a small enclosure.
Speak to a video capture specialist to match the M.2 key, size and inputs to your system.
