July 2, 2009 -- 3M Electronic Solutions Division is now offering cabling products for users of high-performance digital camera applications. The 3M High Speed 0.8 mm Cable Assemblies for Power over Camera Link (PoCL) are based on the company's PoCL base configuration for machine vision applications. The line of 0.8 mm cable assemblies provides a range of interface possibilities for Camera Link applications, says the company.
The 3M PoCL cables mate to industry standard Shrunk Delta Ribbon (SDR) 26-position PoCL camera connections. They enable machine vision cameras to be powered through the data cable rather than a separate power cable, which potentially eliminates the need for a power connector, saving board space and panel real estate, and allowing the design of smaller cameras.
The PoCL cable assemblies from 3M are designed to offer high performance and reliability even in the toughest industrial settings. The assemblies are built to rigorous standards of workmanship with premium, quality materials, maintains the company. The company says its PoCL cable assemblies also provide excellent signal integrity and low skew, for low bit-error rates.
