Hawk Digital Back to surveillance EMCCD

The digital Hawk EMCCD cameras, model HK247-CL (monochrome) and HK246-CL (colour), offer a standard CameraLink output. It is the smallest and most rugged digital EMCCD camera in the world. It has been specifically designed for integration into imaging system such as small EO/IR surveillance platforms. It is small, lightweight and low power and is therefore the ideal camera for OEM and integrators.
Raptor Photonics recommends the Pleora adaptor box to convert CameraLink to GigE data.
Pleora's iPORT PT1000-CL IP Engine streams video and imaging data in real time over standard GigE connections between Base-configuration Camera Link cameras and PCs.
RaptorVision Capture and SDK allows for easy control of the camera and acquisition of images.
