Typical applications for this hybrid connectivity solution include robotics, automation, quality control, security, and medical technology.
The key to this approach is the systematic reduction of interfaces. Instead of separate cables for power and data transmission, HySpeedVision enables a single-cable solution. This reduces wiring effort, saves space, simplifies integration, and simultaneously increases system reliability, especially in dynamic applications.
HySpeedVision supports high-speed serial protocols such as GMSL™ (versions 1–3), FPD-Link™, APIX®, ASA Motion Link, and USB. Additional protocols can be implemented upon request. With GMSL3, data transfer speeds of up to 12 Gbps are achieved over distances of up to 12 m. Unlike Ethernet-based solutions, these technologies utilize deterministic point-to-point connections, ensuring minimal latency and high process reliability. These characteristics are particularly relevant for applications where image data is used directly to control machines and robots.
Mechanical strength plays a critical role, especially in industrial robotics and mobile systems. HySpeedVision is designed for use in demanding conditions and meets requirements such as cable carrier compatibility and torsional rigidity. The system complies with the M12 standard according to EN 61076-2-010, achieves IP67 protection, and is specified for a temperature range of –20 °C to +70 °C. The shielded version, with a frequency range of DC to 3.5 GHz, ensures electromagnetic compatibility even in environments with high levels of interference. Four power pins transmit up to 1.5 A at 24 V; two signal pins are provided for data transmission.
Rosenberger supports customers from the development phase with design integration advice, PCB footprint calculations, and simulation tools to ensure signal integrity. The goal is to optimize the entire transmission path, from the connector, through the cable, to the printed circuit board.
