Linea HS Multifield Camera
CX4 AOC Data Cables
Camera Link HS CX4 AOC (Active Optical Cable) cables handle very high data rates over long
distances. These cables accept the same electrical inputs as traditional copper cables, but use
optical fibers for data transmission. AOC uses electrical-to-optical conversion on the cable ends to
improve speed and distance performance of the cable without sacrificing compatibility with
standard electrical interfaces.
Camera Link HS cables can be bought from OEMs, both is standard and flex models.
Please refer to Teledyne DALSA’s website (www.teledynedalsa.com) for a list of recommended
cable vendors and for part numbers.
Each data cable is used for sending image data to and accepting command data from the frame
grabber. Command data includes GenICam compliant messages, trigger timing, and general
purpose I/O, such as direction control.
