Industrial and equipment use
Not just for cameras.
CFast 2.0 is not just a camera card. Customers use this reader to:
- Industrial PCs: back up and restore the removable CFast boot cards in industrial PCs, for example for Beckhoff CX-series embedded PCs and B&R Automation PCs.
- Broadcast recorders: offload CFast 2.0 cards for Blackmagic HyperDeck Extreme recorders.
Tip for boot cards: industrial boot cards often hold partitions your computer cannot open. Use a sector-level imaging tool, restore only to a card the same size or larger, and follow your equipment maker's card requirements. If your computer asks to format the card, click Cancel.
This reader takes CFast cards only. It does not read CompactFlash (CF) cards. Brand names identify equipment only. PixelFlash is not affiliated with or endorsed by these manufacturers.
