Here's the comparison for the two cameras on your three criteria:
| FRAMOS Depth Camera D415e | LIPSedge AE400 | |
|---|---|---|
| PoE support | Yes — M12 Gigabit Ethernet data/PoE, IEEE 802.3af PoE PD (M12 X-coded); also accepts 12–24 V DC via M8 auxiliary input | Yes — PoE-powered input via Gigabit Ethernet |
| Operating temp range | 0 °C to 60 °C (housing temperature limit) | 0 °C to 40 °C |
| RGB (image) resolution | 1920x1080 max (rolling shutter; RGB max frame rate held at max resolution) | 1920x1080 max @ 15 fps (rolling-shutter type not stated; depth output is 1280x720@30fps) |
Key takeaways for your PoE install:
- Both cameras support PoE over Gigabit Ethernet, so either works for a single-cable setup. The D415e adds the option of redundant M8 auxiliary power at 12–24 V DC.
- The D415e handles a hotter environment — up to 60 °C versus 40 °C for the AE400 — and is IP66-rated for the housing, which matters for industrial/enclosed installs.
- RGB resolution is identical at 1920x1080 on both.
Both are active IR stereo depth cameras filed under Stereo Depth Cameras. If the wider temp envelope and IP66 rating matter for your mounting location, the D415e is the stronger fit; the AE400 matches it on PoE and RGB resolution.
