How to handle a massive amount of high-resolution imagery across multiple cameras simultaneously? With the right architecture, it stops being a problem - and becomes a competitive advantage. The XGbE series cluster topology receives data at 100 Gb/s or higher, distributes processing across servers, and maintains GPS-level frame synchronisation across every camera in the array. No bottlenecks. No timing drift. No single point of failure. Start with a few units. Scale to hundreds. The infrastructure logic stays exactly the same. For SSA/SDA programmes where coverage, uptime, and data integrity are non-negotiable, this is what observatory-grade looks like in 2026. 👉 Request a proposal scoped to your deployment.

Forget the bandwidth contention typical of daisy-chained or USB-bound imaging systems. Every camera added to a legacy setup competes for the same pipe. Frame drops, latency spikes, and synchronisation failures aren't bugs - they're the inevitable result of architecture that was never designed for multi-camera scale. The XGbE series eliminates contention by design. Each unit gets its own dedicated 10 Gb/s SFP+ link. Cameras don't share bandwidth - they never even see each other on the wire. Traffic aggregates cleanly at the switch and feeds your acquisition server at 100 Gb/s. Add a camera, add a port. The rest of the array is untouched. This is what interference-free, observatory-grade imaging looks like. 👉 Talk to an Atik engineer about your current setup.

There is a better way to scale your camera cluster. What if adding 10 cameras to your SDA network was just 10 switch ports and 10 fiber runs? With the XGbE series, it is. Native 10 GbE IP connectivity plugs directly into your existing Ethernet infrastructure - no proprietary hardware, no specialist integrators, no weeks of configuration. One GPS module synchronises every camera in the cluster. One aggregating switch consolidates all traffic. One 100 Gb/s uplink feeds your server. From a handful of units to a full multi-site observatory. Same architecture, every time. 👉 Download the datasheet or request a tailored quote.
