Industrial camera cables typically include two main types: video cables and trigger cables.
Video cable (Camera Link cable):
Function: Used for transmitting image data. A video cable is a digital signal transmission cable that typically employs specialized interface standards, such as the Camera Link standard. This type of cable connects industrial cameras to image acquisition devices to transmit the image data captured by the camera.
Trigger Cable:
Function: Used to trigger the camera to capture an image. The trigger line is a control signal cable that transmits the trigger signal, instructing the camera when to start or stop image acquisition. This is crucial for ensuring precise image capture whenever required, particularly in industrial and machine vision applications.
In certain industrial applications, these two types of cables may be combined into a single cable to facilitate easier management and connection of the camera. Such a cable can carry video signals, trigger signals, and potentially other control signals as well. This integrated cable design helps simplify wiring and installation, while enhancing the overall system reliability.
