OSCEOLA, Wis.- June 10- Northwire, Inc. has introduced a new cable assembly product line—Endurance. The new product line includes cable assemblies for vision system applications. Endurance cable assemblies are engineered with top-quality connectors and Northwire’s advanced, industrial-grade cables. These rugged assemblies provide ultra-reliable interconnectivity in motion and vision system applications. Endurance products for vision system applications include CCXC Analog Video, MVC-800 FireWire, GEV-1000™ GigE Vision™ and Camera Link® cable assemblies.
Northwire has been producing industrial-grade cables of the highest quality for well-known industrial-sensor manufacturers for many years. As a result of this experience, Northwire has set the standard of difference between Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS)-grade cables and cables that must withstand the rigors of an industrial environment. This same standard of quality goes into developing and producing the most rugged assemblies for vision system applications.
“For more than 35 years, Northwire has designed and manufactured rugged, high-quality, made-to-order and standard industrial-grade cable. Utilizing this superior cable, Northwire is now designing, manufacturing and providing cable assemblies for vision system applications,” says Bud Brown, director of new business development at Northwire, Inc. “We’re so certain that these technologically advanced assemblies exceed what is currently available that we provide a lifetime guarantee on them.”
Northwire ensures the integrity of signal transmission by controlling aspects of the process, from cable design and development through cable production, plus advanced connector design, termination, overmolding and testing.
"Stock vision cable assemblies can be purchased online from NorthwireDirect," adds Tom Collen, director of marketing at Northwire. "Endurance cable assemblies are shipped fast, direct from the factory with no minimum quantity."
Endurance CCXC Analog Camera cable assemblies meet industry standards for analog CCD (charge-couple device) cameras and are RoHS-compliant. The cable has surpassed 15 million flex cycles of testing.
Endurance MVC-800 FireWire cable assemblies are available in standard length of 4.5 meters/14.8 feet and extended distance/extended life (type MVC-800EL) as long as 7 meters/23 feet. MVC-800EL has surpassed 11 million flex cycles of rigorous bending, rolling and torsional tests.
Endurance GEV-1000 GigE Vision cable assemblies are designed to meet GigE Vision requirements with high flexibility for industrial applications. The cable exceeds 12 million flex cycles, including Northwire’s standardized tick-tock test. Assemblies are available with traditional latching, horizontal and vertical screw locking configurations. All designs permit easy viewing of LEDs on the camera connector.
Northwire produced the world’s first high-flex-life Camera Link cable and offers the only Camera Link cable to surpass 19 million flex cycles of testing.
Endurance Camera Link cable assemblies are designed for industrial-grade applications with camera and frame grabbers. EnduroFLEX TPE jacketing material makes this cable suitable for rugged industrial and outdoor environments.
Camera Link cable assemblies are available in standard and Power Over Camera Link (PoCL)—a Camera Link cable with power transmission capabilities. PoCL is available for Camera Link and Mini Camera Link (MiniCL) assemblies. MiniCL uses a smaller connector than traditional Camera Link but incorporates the same hardware and software protocols.
Endurance standard and PoCL Camera Link cables feature 28 AWG conductors and meet the requirements of appendix D and appendix E of the Camera Link specification. Assemblies using 30AWG and 32 AWG conductors also are available. Endurance right-angle Camera Link assemblies have a very low profile (approximately 1.72 centimeters).
All premium-grade cable used in Endurance assemblies is constructed with an industrial-strength outer jacket, which is highly resistant to oil, abrasion, welding flash and water, and is suitable for outdoor use. Temperature ratings are +80°C. The cables have dual-shielded construction with 100 percent foil and tinned copper braid shield for noisy factory environments. The cables are UL-recognized, CSA-approved, FT-1 flame rated and RoHS-compliant.
