Rosenberger is expanding its portfolio with HySpeedVision (HYV), a hybrid connector solution for machine vision systems in automation and robotics. The system combines power and data transmission in a single interface and is available as a PCB connector as well as a cable assembly. Typical application areas for this hybrid connection solution include robotics, automation, quality control, security, and medical technology.

At the heart of this approach is the consistent reduction of interfaces. Instead of separate lines for power supply and data transmission, HySpeedVision enables a single-cable solution. This reduces cabling effort, saves installation space, simplifies integration, and simultaneously increases system reliability – especially in dynamic applications.

High data rates with minimal latency

HySpeedVision supports high-speed serial protocols such as GMSL™ (versions 1–3), FPD-Link™, APIX® , ASA Motion Link, and USB. Additional protocols are available upon request. With GMSL3, data transfer rates of up to 12 Gbps are achieved over distances of up to 12 m.

Unlike Ethernet-based solutions, these technologies use deterministic point-to-point connections, ensuring minimal latency and high process reliability. These characteristics are particularly relevant for applications where image data is used directly to control machines and robots.

Optimized for dynamic applications

Especially in industrial robotics and moving systems, mechanical resilience plays a crucial role. HySpeedVision is designed for use under demanding conditions and meets requirements such as drag chain compatibility and torsional strength. The system complies with the M12 standard according to EN 61076-2-010, achieves IP67 protection, and is specified for a temperature range of -20 °C to +70 °C. The shielded design with a frequency range of DC to 3.5 GHz ensures electromagnetic compatibility even in environments with increased interference. Four power pins transmit up to 1.5 A at 24 V; two signal pins are provided for data transmission.

Holistic approach to high-frequency design

Rosenberger supports customers as early as the development phase with design-in consulting, PCB footprint calculation, and simulation tools to ensure signal integrity. The goal is to optimize the entire transmission path – from the connector to the cable and finally to the circuit board.
