Form factors 
The Grablink Value is available in two form factors.
The Grablink Value PCI has a 32-bit 33 MHz PCI conventional
bus. The Grablink Value cPCI benefits from a 64-bit
66 MHz cPCI bus. The Compact PCI board (cPCI) serves
the purpose of the industrial applications. This particular
form factor brings a high resistance to shocks and vibrations
thanks to the rugged packaging and the high-density
pin-and-socket connection to the PC. Besides, cPCI PCs
offer many more slots - in the 33 MHz configuration
up to eight slots are available-.
On board memory
The Grablink Value incorporates 8-Mbyte on board memory.
Used as a huge image FIFO, it is clocked at 80 MHz and
provides a peak bandwidth of 320 Mbytes/s.
I/O lines
The Grablink Value is fitted with a female DB9 connector.
It implements the trigger and strobe facilities offered
by the MultiCam driver. System components such as motion
encoders benefit from isolated I/O lines and power supply.
