INTRODUCTION Connect Tech’s GMSL camera platform is an expansion board that allows up to 8 GMSL cameras to be connected to various Jetson platforms. The NVIDIA Jetson® GMSL Camera Platform has user selectable options to interface with either GMSL1 or GMSL2 protocols at different operating frequencies. Power to the cameras is provided by PoC (Power over Coax) so all the data, control signals, and power are sent through a single 50 Ohm Coaxial cable.

NVIDIA Jetson® GMSL Camera Platform Users Guide www.connecttech.com [S1] GMSL Switch Summary & Locations This must be set correctly at power up! This signal is sampled once at boot up and cannot be changed on-the-fly. The GMSL mode cannot be changed in software. The setting applies to all 8 channels, so you cannot mix GMSL1 and GMSL2 cameras on the same board.
