The Camera Fiber-Link System-6000 from Thinklogical® uses one or more Camera Side Units and a Frame Grabber Side Unit
interconnected by duplex, multi-mode fiber optic cables to allow Camera Link video support up to 500 meters (1640 feet) from the host
computer with no loss of signal or resolution and without the use of amplifiers or repeaters of any kind.
With industrial enhancements such as threaded screw-lock input connectors for standard 5V-12V input power, or with our 12V-24V input
power designed for rugged industrial environments, and with our compact, light-weight design, the Camera Fiber-Link System is ideal for any
application.

Complete Steps 1-8 to connect your
Camera Fiber-Link CFL-6000 System
STEP 1: Check the contents to ensure that
you’ve received all the items included with
your system.
STEP 2: Connect multi-mode fiber
optic cables (up to 500 meters) between the
Frame Grabber Side Unit and the two
Camera Side Units. For each camera,
connect L1 to L1 and L2 to L2. Be sure not to
kink or pinch the cables and keep all bend
radii to no less than 3 inches.
STEP 3: Connect the standard +5-12VDC
power supplies (PWR-000022-R), or the
industrial option 12V-24V power supplies
(PWR-000033-R), to the Camera Side Units
(Tx) and plug each one into a standard AC
source.
STEP 4: If using external sensors, lighting,
etc., two CAT5 cables and RJ45F to DB9M
and DB9F adapters (KIT-000013-R) are
included to connect your serial device(s)
through the Camera Side and Frame Grabber
Side units.
STEP 5: Using MDR-26 Cables, connect a
camera to each of the Camera Side Units (Tx)
at the CAMERA port and turn the cameras
ON.
STEP 6: Connect the standard +5-12VDC
power supply (PWR-000022-R), or the
industrial option 12V-24V power supply
(PWR-000033-R), to the Frame Grabber Unit
(Rx) and plug it into a standard AC source.
STEP 7: Using two MDR-26 Cables (CBL-
000007-002MR), connect the CPU’s frame
grabber to the Frame Grabber Side Unit (Rx).
STEP 8: Open the frame grabber
application on the Source CPU. Verify that
all system features are functioning properly.
