See More, Navigate Safer, and Map with Greater Detail Give your robot a clearer three-dimensional view of its surroundings. The LSLiDAR C16 combines 16 scanning channels, full 360° coverage, up to 150 m detection, and dual-return output of up to 640,000 points per second, helping autonomous platforms detect obstacles, understand object height, and build more detailed environmental maps. With an IP67-rated enclosure and a 905 nm Class I eye-safe laser, it is designed for reliable operation across warehouses, roads, campuses, industrial sites, and other demanding environments. Standard C16 or C16-PoE: Which One Should You Choose? Choose the standard C16 when your platform already provides a 12–32 V DC power source and separate Ethernet and PPS connections. Choose C16-PoE when simplified installation is the priority: a single 100M industrial Ethernet cable carries both power and data, reducing cable routing and making it especially suitable for roadside monitoring, railway systems, security installations, and other fixed deployments. Both versions offer the same core LiDAR performance—the difference is how they connect to your system. Key Features 16-line 3D sensing: Mechanical scanning across a full 360-degree horizontal field of view and a 30-degree vertical field of view. Long-range TOF measurement: 100 m at 10% reflectivity and 150 m at 70% reflectivity. Configurable scan performance: 5, 10, or 20 Hz operation with 0.09, 0.18, or 0.36 degree horizontal resolution. Dense returns: Up to 320,000 points/s in single-echo mode or 640,000 points/s in dual-echo mode. Industrial protection: IP67 ingress protection, -20 to 60 degrees C operating temperature, and specified vibration and shock resistance. PoE wiring option: C16-PoE combines power and data through one Ethernet cable and supports power delivery over runs up to 100 m, subject to the system design.

They share the same 16-line sensing architecture and core ranging specifications. C16 uses a separate 12-32 V DC power connection and Ethernet/PPS, while C16-PoE uses 36-57 V DC Power over Ethernet with a 100M industrial Ethernet connection. Does C16-PoE carry both power and data over one cable? Yes. The PoE configuration is designed to combine power and data on one Ethernet cable, helping simplify installation and cable routing. What is the maximum detection range? The specified range is 100 m at 10% target reflectivity and 150 m at 70% target reflectivity. Actual usable range varies with target material, weather, installation height, and scene conditions. What scan rates are available? The sensor supports 5, 10, and 20 Hz. Horizontal resolution is 0.09, 0.18, and 0.36 degrees respectively. Does the sensor support dual echo? Yes. The C16 series supports 320,000 points/s in single-echo mode and 640,000 points/s in dual-echo mode. Is the LiDAR suitable for outdoor use? Yes. It has an IP67 enclosure and a specified operating temperature range of -20 to 60 degrees C. Confirm your full system design for the intended environmental conditions. What field of view does it provide? The sensor provides 360 degrees of horizontal coverage and a vertical field of view from -16 to 14 degrees, for a total vertical coverage of 30 degrees. Which interface should I plan for? Use Ethernet and PPS for the standard C16 configuration. Use 100M industrial Ethernet and an appropriate 36-57 V PoE power system for C16-PoE. What are the physical dimensions? The standard C16 measures diameter 102 x 77.9 mm. C16-PoE measures diameter 102 x 91.9 mm, so allow additional vertical clearance for the PoE configuration. Where can I find official technical documents? Use the individual official links in the Product Documentation section for the product page, English brochure, product introduction PDF, and PoE-series overview.
