2-4 Camera Link Cable & Connector
Camera Link The connection between the camera and the PCIe-FRM13 board uses a 26 Pin
MDR (Mini D Ribbon) cable. The camera link cable consists of a twin-axial shielded cable and two
MDR 26-male plugs. [Figure 2-4] below is a commonly used camera link cable.
[Figure 2-5] is a 26-Pin Male MDR Connecter located at both ends of the cable, and [Figure 2-6]
is a 26-Pin Female MDR Connector, located at the camera or frame grabber. As shown in the
figure, the pin numbers are cross-connected, so that the transmitter and receiver terminals of the
camera and frame grabber signal lines are cross-connected.
