New Full HD mini camera with output flexibility

We have recently introduced our new Full HD color board-level camera featuring a low power 1/3” CMOS image sensor. The new 24C46X-2 camera series offers a 2.1 MP (1920x1080) resolution with a frame rate of 30/25 fps. With its small size, robust design, and twisted pair and coaxial output options, the 24C46X-2 is ideal for a wide range of space-limited applications.

Choosing the 24C46X-2 would bring the latest imaging technology to your application, without compromising unit size.

The redesigned 24C46X-2 camera is a perfect fit for projects that involves an upgrade of an old standard definition camera to Full HD, regardless of the existing twisted pair or coaxial cabling. Users can achieve significant time, effort, and cost savings by leveraging the existing wiring. Over twisted pair, 24C46X-2 supports high-definition transmission over 300m (950ft), whereas over coaxial cabling, the HD transmission distance goes up above 500m (1,600ft). Both TVI and AHD video interfaces are supported with these two output options.

Both twisted pair (left) and coaxial (right) options are shown with the I²C board. Connected to a USB port of a computer.

This compact, double-board camera is only 15mm x 15mm (0.59” x 0.59”) in size and can tolerate temperature ranges from -30°C to 60°C (-22°F to 140°F). It supports 4.0 - 5.5V voltage and has less than 0.5lux sensitivity.  

The camera is computer controllable via an I²C interface. To communicate with the camera Videology offers an optional communication kit with wire leads, control software (24C46 camera control), and an updater tool. Once the I²C board driver is installed correctly, the GUI tool can be used to control most aspects of the camera.

GUI tool for camera control

The easy-to-use GUI tool for 24C26X-2 allows adjustments on basic image controls as well advanced adjustments on exposure, white balance, color, backlight, sharpness and notice reduction, lens shading, analog output, and camera register controls.

Cameras from the 24C46X-2 series are also available in a housed version with the flexibility of mounting a pinhole, M12, or CS lens, depending on your application and imaging requirements. You can use our focal length calculator to help you determine the correct focal length of the lens needed for your application.
