Installing a GigE network interface card (NIC)
If your host computer has an available Ethernet interface, this can be used with
Allied Vision GigE cameras. We recommend that your camera system uses a
dedicated Ethernet interface not shared with Internet or local area networks. If
more interfaces are needed, or your existing Ethernet adapter is unable to
operate at Gigabit Ethernet speeds, installing additional hardware may be
required.
• For desktop systems, use a PCI Express bus Ethernet adapter.
• For laptops, use an expansion slot via an Express Card.
