<Note: Choosing the appropriate Camera Link cable length >
According to the Camera Link Specification, the maximum cable length is 10m. But the
maximum cable length to be able to transfer data depends on the type of cable
performance and clock speed. The actual maximum transmission distance becomes
less than 10m at faster clock speeds, though the transmission distance of 10m is
feasible at slower clock speeds.
The following table shows values being calculated in accordance with the Camera Link
Specification 2007.Version1.2, using a typical cable (14B26-SZLB-xxx-0LC from 3M)
and frame grabber board (Solios from Matrox). Please choose the appropriate Camera
Link cable type and length for your application. We recommend you perform a
connection test in advance.
