Camera Link HS
The camera is Camera Link HS version 1.0 compliant. Camera Link HS is the next generation of
high performance communications standards and is used where a digital industrial camera
interfaces with single or multiple frame grabbers with data rates exceeding those supported by
Camera Link. The camera includes a single Camera Link HS compatible connector, capable of
supporting data rates up to 2.1 Gbytes per second. The connector can also interface with standard
‘CX4 Active Optical Cable’ fiber modules where very long data transmission is required—up to 300
meters.
