Extend Digital Camera Signals up to 10 kilometers

CFL-3000 and CFL-4000 RX/TX

Thinklogical has developed fiber optic extenders for the Camera-Link™ standard for high performance digital cameras and frame grabbers. This state-of-the-art camera link system guarantees a constant sensitivity of the image thanks to MRTS technology (Multi- Rate Transmission System), a unique patent pending optic platform. The Camera Fiber-Link™ - CFL-3000 and CFL-4000 - support Base and Full/Medium/Base configurations (respectively). Each extender supports serial connections as well as the camera signals. The CFL-3000 utilizes 2 fibers and the CFL-4000 requires 3. See cable assemblies. Both models are housed in a compact metallic enclosure small enough to mount easily in cramped environments. The CFL-3000 and CFL-4000 are available with ST, SC (standard) or LC fiber optic connectors.

Thinklogical's Dual-Base Camera Fiber-Link™ Takes High Performance Vision Applications to the Next Level

Dual CFL-5000 RX/TX

Thinklogical's industrial strength Camera Fiber-Link™ Dual-Base Extension System - CFL-5000 is a fiber optic extender for the Camera-Link™ standard for high performance digital cameras and frame grabbers. The CFL-5000 transmits images up to 10 kilometers without any kind of amplifiers or repeaters in between. Small enough to mount in cramped environments the CFL-5000 fully supports two unsynchronized base or dual-base Camera-Link™ cameras. The CFL-5000 receives video data from each camera and converts the data into optical signals and sends them to the CFL-5000 transmitter. The transmitter in turn converts the optical signals into video data and sends them out to one dual-base frame grabber (PC).

Dual CFL-6000 RX

Thinklogical's CFL-6000 Dual Camera Fiber-Link™ Receiver is a unique component that addresses users who have two cameras in different locations and are tight on space. The Dual CFL-6000 RX receives optical data from two CFL-3000 (Camera Fiber-Link) transmitters and converts them back into video data and sends them out to a frame grabber base.

Enhanced Industrial Camera Fiber-Link Options and New Improved Power Options

The entire line of Thinklogical Camera Fiber-Link Extenders features industrial enhancements such as power input, from 5 to 12 V or 12 to 24V. It also features a screw lock (threaded) input which is designed to meet the needs of a rugged industrial environment. In addition, users can use their own DC input. Din rail connectors for mounting and chassis ground post options are also included. Now it is possible to position the camera in any manufacturing setting or hostile factor floor environment, while keeping the computer secure in a controlled location.
