Introduction 1
PCIe-2602
1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The PCIe-2602 3G-SDI Audio/Video Capture Card, based on the
PCI Express®x4 interface, enables acquisition of 2 channels
3G-SDI, low latency, and raw video data signals up to
1920x1080P/60fps (frames per second).
Thanks to 3G capability, ADLINK’s PCIe-2602 supports high accu-
racy color format, such as 12 bit 4:4:4 1080i/60fps or 10 bit 4:2:2
1080P/60fps, and when combined with a suitable 75coaxial
cable, 3G-SDI signals can be transmitted over 100 m, suiting the
PCIe-2602 for medical imaging and intelligent video surveillance
and analysis.
The included ViewCreator Pro®utility enables setup, configura-
tion, testing, and system debugging without requiring any software
programming. As well, ADLINK's drivers are compatible with
Microsoft®DirectShow, reducing engineering efforts and acceler-
ating time to market.
1.2 Features
XSupport for 2-CH 3G-SDI video signal, up to 1920 x
1080P/60fps video stream
XLow latency, uncompressed video streaming
XHigh accuracy color format support, 12 bit 4:4:4 1080i/60fps
or 10 bit 4:2:2 1080P/60fps
XCabling distances up to 100m (w/ compatible 75coaxial
cable)
XDirectshow support
XRS-485 and Digital I/O provided
XPCI Express x4 compliant signal
XConnection Status LED
1.3 Applications
The PCIe-2602, featuring 3G signal capture ability and support for
highly accurate color formatting, is ideal for frame grab function in

2Introduction
a wide variety of applications, including medical imaging and intel-
ligent video surveillance or analytics.
1.4 Specifications
The PCIe-2602 provides 2 BNC connectors that support 2 chan-
nels of video and embedded audio, with maximum video data
throughput of 2.97Gb/s, with 1.485G and 270M bps supported,
and RS-485 and digital I/O simplify connection with other devices.
1.4.1 Software Support
XOS supported: Win 7/XP/8, 32/64-bit
XSoftware compatibility: Visual C++, C#, Visual Basic.Net,
Borland C++ Builder
1.4.2 Video & Audio
The PCIe-2602 supports the following video and audio formats.

1.4.3 Power Consumption
1.4.4 Electrical
The following specification includes values for SDI, PCI Express,
and digital Input and Output.
NOTE:
NOTE:
If the input source is 720p30, 8/10 bit 4:4:4, the PCIe-2602 can
only capture the video signal without audio signal. In ViewCre-
ator Pro, adjust Video Format and Color Format to display the
image normally. Format in the API GetDetectedSensorFormat
(UINT Number, int& Format) will return -1 when the input
source is 720p30, 8/10 bit 4:4:4.
