Camera Link HS

Camera Link HS (high speed) is a standard developed for high-speed digital data transmission in machine vision and industrial imaging applications. It is an evolution of the original Camera Link standard, aiming to provide higher bandwidth and faster data transfer rates. Camera Link HS utilizes high-speed serial communication to transmit image data, control signals, and metadata between cameras and frame grabbers or other image processing devices.

Key features of Camera Link HS include:

High-speed data transmission: Camera Link HS supports high data rates, allowing for the rapid transfer of large image data sets. It is designed to meet the demands of high-resolution and high-speed imaging systems.

Serial communication: Unlike the parallel communication used in the original camera link standard, Camera Link HS employs serial communication, which reduces the number of cables required and simplifies system integration.

Scalability: Camera Link HS offers scalability in terms of data bandwidth, allowing users to adapt the standard to their specific application requirements by selecting the appropriate configuration.

Backward compatibility: While Camera Link HS introduces new features and improvements, it also maintains backward compatibility with the original camera link standard, ensuring interoperability with existing equipment and infrastructure.
