Camera Cabling Requirements

Note that Basler highly recommends USB 3.0 and I/O cables that are offered as
Basler accessories. For recommended accessories, see the Basler website:

5.5.1

USB 3.0 Cable

Use a high-quality USB 3.0 cable. If possible only 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.
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.
An incorrect plug can damage the 6-pin I/O connector.
The plug on the cable that you attach to the camera's 6-pin I/O connector must have 6 female
pins. Using a plug designed for a smaller or a larger number of pins can damage the connector.
