Why do Sony industrial cameras prefer extremely thin coaxial cables?

Against the backdrop of rapid development in high-speed vision and intelligent manufacturing, industrial cameras are continuously evolving towards higher resolution, higher frame rate, and miniaturization. As an industry leader, Sony's industrial camera solutions maintain strict standards in the transmission path. The ultra-thin coaxial cable, due to its high speed, light weight, flexibility, and high anti-interference ability, is becoming an important component of Sony's high-performance camera system.
This article will analyze why Sony systems tend to choose ultra-fine coaxial cables from aspects such as performance requirements, structural advantages, typical models, and engineering considerations.

The characteristics and high-speed transmission advantages of ultra-fine coaxial beam

The ultra-fine coaxial cable束 usually uses micro-fine conductors and coaxial shielding structures of AWG36~AWG42, featuring precise impedance, low insertion loss, and excellent EMI suppression capabilities. Compared with traditional multi-core wires or flat cables, it can significantly reduce issues such as crosstalk and reflections in high-speed signal applications, ensuring stable transmission of bandwidths in the Gbps range for interfaces such as MIPI, LVDS, and CoaXPress. Its small size and high flexibility make it particularly suitable for use between compact camera modules and main control boards, enabling high-density wiring and reliable signal integrity.

The core reason why Sony industrial cameras prefer extremely fine coaxial cable束

Sony industrial cameras generally use high-speed interfaces, which put stringent requirements on the performance of cables. Firstly, high-speed signal chains require extremely high impedance consistency and low loss capabilities to avoid unstable image transmission or abnormal pictures. Secondly, Sony cameras and their matching optical modules are often compact in structure, and the small bending radius of the micro coaxial cables can easily adapt to narrow spaces and achieve high-density wiring. In addition, industrial sites are often accompanied by strong interference environments, and the 360° shielding structure of the extremely thin coaxial cables can greatly improve the anti-interference capability. Their advantages of lightweight, multi-core integration, and modularization are also very in line with the application trends of robots, drones, and camera modules.

Section 3: Typical Usage Scenarios and Representative Models of Sony Industrial Cameras

In Sony's FCB series and many modules based on IMX sensors, extremely thin coaxial cables have become the standard connection method. For example, the FCB-EV7520 uses a 30-core micro-coaxial cable to achieve high-speed LVDS and control signal transmission; the FCB-EH3150 adopts a digital and analog mixed interface, with the internal structure also integrating micro-coaxial; and a large number of third-party industrial cameras based on Sony IMX sensors also commonly use micro-coaxial connection modules with the mainboard, ensuring high signal integrity and low noise output, fully reflecting the maturity and reliability of the micro-coaxial solution in Sony systems.

The ultra-fine coaxial cable bundle, with its precise impedance, high bandwidth, strong anti-interference capabilities, lightweight flexibility, has become an irreplaceable key interconnection technology in Sony's industrial camera system. From high-speed image transmission to high-density wiring, from complex motion structures to compact modular designs, micro coax provides important support for the high-performance and stable operation of Sony systems. As cameras continue to develop towards higher speed and miniaturization, the application value of ultra-fine coaxial cables will continue to increase.
