### Line rate

| Configuration (8 bit) | Line rate |
| --- | --- |
| Mono | 196.8 kHz |
| RGB | 65.3 kHz |
| RGB + Mono (NIR) | 50.0 kHz |

### Power supply

You can either use Power over Ethernet (PoE) or the power supply of the external digital I/O port.

### Digital I/O port

The following connector is required for the digital I/O port:

- 15 pin HD D-Sub (female)

![neo-digital%20io%20port-v03](https://cdn.document360.io/eca58697-9c2f-461e-9f0a-e6205b74b693/Images/Documentation/neo-digital%20io%20port-v03.svg)Pin allocation D-Sub connector (male) of the camera

You can configure the digital I/O port as RS422 or as single-ended input or output. It is also possible to configure one output as RS422 and the other output as single-ended.
