Remote camera extension adapter for Camera Link to coaxial

The RCX C-Link Coax2 is a remote camera extension module that adapts Camera Link data from a digital video camera to coaxial cable. It provides long range location of the camera, up to several hundred meters from the host computer depending on the specifications of the coaxial cable.

The RCX C-Link Coax2, similar in size to a a standard Camera Link cable backshell, attaches directly to the MDR-26 connector on the back of the camera. Two SMA connectors provide connectivity for two 50Ω coaxial cables for receive and transmit. If camera control (serial, CC lines and trigger) is not needed, a single coaxial cable can be used.

Two modules connected by a pair of coaxial cables make up an extended-length cable between a base mode Camera Link camera and a camera link frame grabber. Cameras outputting 8-16 bits @ up to 60 MHz, or 24 bits @ up to 40 MHz are supported.
