EDT will showcase its next-generation Camera Link fiber extender, the VisionLink RCX, at SPIE DSS in Baltimore, MD, USA from April 21-23. The VisionLink RCX is a remote camera extender that adapts Camera Link base over fiber to extend beyond the limits of electrical cabling. The VisionLink RCX supports data rates up to 255 MB/s and pixel clock rates of 20-85 MHz. Two extenders combine to form a fiber optic extension cord between the camera and an EDT or third-party Camera Link frame grabber.

Through the Camera Link standard MDR26 (or, with an adapter, SDR26) connector on each device, one extender attaches to the camera and the other to the frame grabber. A fiber optic cable then connects the two extenders by the SFP transceiver on the back of each. Triggering/serial is provided via Camera Link, or externally via an optional Lemo connector. EDT will have a live demonstration of its VisionLink F1 frame grabber connected to a Basler camera via fiber using the VisionLink RCX extender.
