Cables & Adapters

Standard Camera Link cables

• 016-01717-00 Camera Link cable, MDR-MDR, 3 Meters (3M) Camera Link standard MDR26 male-MDR26 male, connects framegrabbers with MDR26 connectors (including EDT DV and DVa series) to cameras with MDR26 connectors.

• P/N 016-14738: Camera Link cable, SDR-MDR, 5 Meters (3M) Camera Link standard SDR26 male-MDR26 male, connects framegrabbers with SDR26 connectors (including the EDT VisionLink F1 and F4) to cameras with MDR26 connectors.

We can provide other lengths or configurations on request, or contact a cable assembly provider such as 3M, Nortech Systems / Intercon 1, Gore, and Technical Cable Concepts.

Fiber-optic cables

EDT stocks the following cables for use with EDT fiber-optic extenders and frame grabbers, including the VisionLink RCX, RCX C-Link, and FOX series products:

• 016-02100-xx  Cable Assy, LC Duplex, 62.5/125µ MMF 6′

• 016-02101-xx  Cable Assy, LC Duplex, 62.5/125µ MMF 200′

Important: These cables are for EDT fiberoptic products that are equipped with standard 850 nm transceivers. For different wavelengths, lengths, specific jackets, bulkhead connectors, and other special fiber requirements, provide us with the details and we can provide a quote, or contact a fiberoptic assembly provider directly such as Borg Technologies, Cypress Industries, and Molex.

Adapter cables for VisionLink RCX and RCX C-Link extenders

EDT’s fiber-optic extenders are designed to plug directly into cameras and framegrabbers that use standard MDR 26 connectors. The adapter cables below are provided for situations where that is not possible, for example due to interference with other connectors, close tolerances, high vibration environments, or use with SDR-equipped devices (including EDT VisionLink series framegrabber boards).

• 016-02563-xx Adapter cable, MDR-MDR, 0.5 meter (3M) MDR26 female to MDR26 male, for use with VisionLInk RCX or RCX C-Link, when tight tolerances or other factors prevent being able to plug the module directly into the camera or frame grabber

• 016-03946-xx Adapter cable, modified MDR-MDR, 0.5 meter (3M) modified version of 016-02563-xx (above)for the RCX Coax2 – since coaxial extenders don’t have thumbscrews, this provides a method for securing the module to a cable and thence to the device.

• 016-13779-xx Adapter cable, MDR-SDR, 1 meter (3M) MDR26 female to SDR26 male, use to adapt VisionLink RCX or RCX C-Link to cameras or frame grabbers that have mini camera-link (SDR) connectors (e.g. the EDT VisionLink F1 and F4).

• 016-13740-xx Adapter cable, MDR-SDR, 2 meter (3M) MDR26 female to SDR26 male, use to adapt VisionLink RCX or RCX C-Link to cameras or frame grabbers that have mini camera-link (SDR) connectors (e.g. the EDT VisionLink F1 and F4).
