* A frame rate stated for a special mode cannot be compared directly with normal frame transmission. With lossless compression, the achievable rate depends on the image and settings. For uncompressed transmission, check the selected camera mode in its datasheet.

Underlined models open a catalog page with documentation. “Lens” opens the lens calculator; “System” starts a system configuration with the selected camera.

Version details

Suffixes are part of the full camera part number. 16LC is a 16 mm liquid lens with a C-mount; WN is white illumination without polarization. PRO identifies a separate camera version; check its functions and operating modes in the corresponding datasheet. Hikrobot model naming rules.
