BitFlow Axion 2xE Frame Grabber is the culmination of all of these improvements, the most powerful CL frame grabber BitFlow has ever manufactured. The AXN-PC2-CL-2xE also benefits from other products in BitFlow’s line up. The Axion-CL uses the Cyton-CXP’s backend: the StreamSync DMA engine and buffer manager. A brand new PCIe Gen 2 interface, with DMA optimized for modern (fully loaded, fully busy) computers.
