The 3M Mini D Ribbon (MDR) Cable Assembly is a high-speed digital data transmission system designed for demanding applications. It supports LVDS Channel Link signaling and complies with the Camera Link Specification V1.0. Featuring 11 shielded twisted pairs (100 ohm) and 4 ground connections, this assembly is ideal for high bandwidth requirements. Its high-density 26-position MDR connector with a rugged ribbon-type contact, overmolded backshell, and thumbscrew latching options ensure robust and reliable connections. This cable assembly is commonly used for bulkhead connections, rack I/O panel connections, and extending the length of standard Camera Link cable assemblies.
