RealSense stereo depth camera that can be powered over Ethernet

Asked as: “Which RealSense stereo depth camera can be powered over Ethernet?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

The RealSense D555 is the RealSense stereo depth camera that can be powered over Ethernet. It sends depth data over Ethernet (RJ45), and PoE powers the camera. You can also use USB for power or debugging. store.real...store.realsenseai.com ↗“Ethernet/RJ45 streams depth data; PoE provides device input power, with USB also usable for power/debug/”

D555 details:

  • Depth sensing: active stereo, with a RealSense D450 optical module, an IMU and the Vision SoC V5. - Ports and protection: 1 Ethernet port and an IP65 rating. store.real... +1store.realsenseai.com ↗“io.ethernet_ports=1”store.realsenseai.com ↗“mechanical.ip_rating=IP65” store.real...store.realsenseai.com ↗“External active-stereo depth camera with RealSense D450 optical module, IMU and Vision SoC V5”
  • Operating temperature: −20 °C to 50 °C. This range is limited by the housing temperature. store.real...store.realsenseai.com ↗“thermal.max_operating_temp_c=50 °C, thermal.min_operating_temp_c=-20 °C, thermal.operating_temp_condition=Housing temperature limit”

The RealSense D457 connects through GMSL2/FAKRA instead, which needs a deserializer on the host side. I couldn't find a stated PoE option for it. store.real...store.realsenseai.com ↗“GMSL2/FAKRA data connection requires a host-side deserializer”

Other cameras that support PoE: FRAMOS (not RealSense) makes three stereo depth cameras that came up in the same search: the D415e, D435e and D455e. Each can take power over its Gigabit Ethernet M12 connector (IEEE 802.3af PoE). You can also power them with 12–24 V DC through an M8 connector. framos.com +2framos.com ↗“M8 auxiliary input nominal12-24V DC ±10%; alternatively M12 IEEE802.3af PoE PD”framos.com ↗“M8 auxiliary input nominal12-24V DC ±10%; alternatively M12 IEEE802.3af PoE PD”framos.com ↗“M8 auxiliary input nominal12-24V DC ±10%; alternatively M12 IEEE802.3af PoE PD”
