RCX C-Link

Remote camera extension adapter for Camera Link to fiberoptic

The RCX C-Link is a remote camera extension module that adapts Camera Link data from a digital video camera to fiberoptic cable. It can support a camera up to 10 kilometers from the host computer.

The RCX C-Link, similar in size to a Camera Link cable connector, attaches directly to the MDR-26 connector on the back of the camera. An LC duplex fiberoptic cable then plugs into the back of the module. A short adapter cable is available for applications where tight tolerances are a factor.

One module connects a camera to an EDT fiberoptic (FOX) framegrabber for base mode image capture. Multiple modules connect one or more cameras to any Camera Link framegrabber for base, medium, or full mode image capture.
