Cable for connecting SDR-26 "Camera-Link" port to an NI PCI-1428 Card

Hello,

This is hopefully a very simple, quick question (which I was unable to answer on the ni.com website without a "service subscription").

Does anyone know what cable (and where I can order said cable) to connect an "SDR-26" (26-pin connector) port on my SUI Goodrich camera to the NI PCI-1428 DAQ card?

 

the SUI manual says something about "SDR to MDR 26-conductor" cable (which may have been included but I don't have it now).  They definitely refer to the plug on the camera as "SDR 26-pin" or "SDR-26".  I'm not sure what these acronyms mean, and the ni.com Camera-Link cables don't specify the connector type or have pictures so I'm not sure if they're correct (and I don't feel like making a $300 mistake!).

 

Any help/direction would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

-- Demis

Hello DeminJanu,

 

Since PCI-1428 takes MDR connection (see page 25 of the manual) and your camera takes SDR, you should be able to use our MDR-SDR camera link cable part number 199745A-05
