Pleora Brings High-Performance Imaging Expertise to NBASE-T Alliance
OTTAWA, CANADA, April 27, 2016: Pleora Technologies, the world’s leading supplier of high-performance video interfaces, today announced that it is the first company from the machine vision industry to join the NBASE-T Alliance, a consortium collaborating on new technologies that extend the bandwidth capabilities of twisted-pair copper cabling using standard Ethernet technology.
The alliance has released the NBASE-T specification, which defines a new type of Ethernet signaling that boosts the speed of twisted-pair cabling up to 5 Gigabit per second (Gbps) – well beyond its designed limit of 1 Gbps – for distances up to 100 meters. Initially developed for wireless access points coping with increasing data requirements, NBASE-T technology is a natural evolution for high-performance imaging thanks to its increased bandwidth, low-cost cabling, and compatibility with existing GigE Vision software.
