5.5 Camera Cabling Requirements
5.5.1 USB 3.0 Cable
Use a high-quality USB 3.0 cable. If possible only use a cable that was recommended in document
DG001115xx000 and preferably use a cable that was obtained from Basler. To avoid EMI, the cable
must be shielded. Close proximity to strong high-frequency electromagnetic fields should be
avoided in your installation.
We recommend to obtain a suitable cable from Basler. Contact your Basler sales representative to
order cable assemblies.
5.5.2 I/O Cable
A single I/O cable is used to connect to the camera’s I/O lines. In your installation, close proximity
to strong high-frequency electromagnetic fields should be avoided.
The end of the I/O cable that connects to the camera must be terminated with a Hirose micro plug
(plug type HR10A-7P-6S) or the equivalent. The cable must be wired to conform with the pin
assignments shown in the pin assignment table.
The maximum length of the I/O cable is at least 10 m. The cable must be shielded and have twisted
pair wire to ensure that input signals are correctly received.
The required 6-pin Hirose plug is available from Basler. Basler also offers cable assemblies that are
terminated with a 6-pin Hirose plug on one end and unterminated on the other. Contact your Basler
sales representative to order connectors or cables.
Note: We highly recommend using USB 3.0 and I/O cables that are offered as
Basler accessories. They were extensively tested for optimum performance.
