Camera Link HS CX4 AOC (Active Optical Cable) cables are made to handle very high data rates.
These cables accept the same electrical inputs as traditional copper cables, but also use optical
fibers. 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 an OEM. OEM cables are also available for applications
where flexing is present. 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.
Note: data transmits at 10 Gbps which limits the effective distance of copper-
based cables.
