Camera Link extender (next-gen) over fiber-optic cable - VisionLink series
Model Number: VisionLink RCX
By: EDT
The VisionLink RCX (compatible with our earlier RCX C-Link) is an extender that adapts base mode Camera Link over fiber to extend beyond the limits of electrical cabling. Similar in size to a standard Camera Link connector, it supports data rates up to 255 MB/s and pixel clock rates of 20-85 MHz. Two extenders combine to form a fiberoptic extension cord between the camera and an EDT or third-party Camera Link framegrabber.
Through the Camera Link standard MDR26 (or, with an adapter, the SDR26) connector on each device, one extender attaches to the camera and the other to the framegrabber. A fiberoptic cable then connects the two extenders by the SFP transceiver on the back of each. Triggering / serial is provided via Camera Link, or externally via an optional Lemo connector.
