Femto Mega I vs Gemini 335Le: IP rating, operating temperature and weight

Asked as: “For an outdoor PoE install, compare the Femto Mega I and Gemini 335Le on IP rating, operating temperature range and weight.”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

Here's the comparison for your outdoor PoE install:

SpecFemto Mega IGemini 335Le
IP ratingIP65IP67
Operating temperature0 °C to 45 °C−10 °C to 50 °C
Weight1080 g220 g

Notes relevant to your install:

  • Both cameras are PoE-powered over their Gigabit Ethernet / M12 X-coded connection, so either can run on a single PoE cable drop. The Femto Mega I is PoE Class 802.3at (PoE+); the Gemini 335Le's PoE class is not listed in the catalog.
  • For harsher outdoor exposure, the Gemini 335Le is the stronger pick: IP67 gives it a higher dust/water ingress rating than IP65, and its −10 °C to 50 °C range is wider on both ends. Note the Gemini 335Le's temperature range depends on frame rate — its −10 °C to 50 °C spec holds at 15 fps, with the maximum dropping to 45 °C at 30/60 fps, so factor in your required frame rate.
  • The Femto Mega I is about 5x heavier (1080 g vs 220 g), which matters for bracket/mast mounting. It also integrates a Jetson Nano onboard, whereas the Gemini 335Le is a depth camera without onboard compute, so your system architecture may weigh more heavily than the environmental specs.
