It actually makes some sense.

Because it then could be operated detached from other components,
in a low power mode "timed snapshot mode picture every .. seconds", while the rest of the vessels electronics remains powered off.

And not to forget movement/feature detection by embeded algorithms, which is often found in these types of cameras.

Those cameras often have - openly or hidden - GPIO interfaces, which then could be used to "re-energize" the whole system in a predefined event.

low power mode -> enhanced / indefinite operational time / small units powered by solar or wave/drift generators

low power mode -> lowered IR signature for covert loitering

In the end:
Everything that a camera that is connected via LVDS to the main control unit is incapable of requiring the main unit to remain powered on or engineer the whole energy conservation from scratch.

small company -> needs efficiency

While I'm clearly opposed to the U.S. prison system I would call a violation of basic human rights, the prison term is most likely based on his extortion attempt to ransom 2.4 Million USD

along with him being not an influential millionaire, and go to a minimum security prison similar to the one Jeffrey E. went for.

And from my POV this should be the only crime he should "rethink" what he would be in for.

But I'm also in favor that the people responsible for the security holes that were left open and made it possible, to share his prison term, perhaps he can can get the weekends off.
