  • Industry I/O Standards

    You work to design where medical imaging data goes – and maximize how it gets there. We’re with you at every step. That means cable assemblies that meet PCIe 4 and 5 (and soon 6). CoaXPress compatible cable assemblies specifically for industrial cameras. USB3 Vision® compatible cables that combine long functional length and high flexibility. A range of Camera Link MDR/SDR compatible assemblies, plus a broad range of D-Sub connectors and industrial flat-ribbon cables. 3M IDC connectors can also provide a complete signal, power, linking and branching connectivity, ideal for sensor arrays, and can save up to 80% on wiring time.

  • High-performance imaging

    For medical equipment – where high-speed, high-flex, high-resolution performance is crucial – you’ll find complete 3M solutions across USB3 Vision®, CoaXPress® and Camera Link standards. Our high-flex cables have been bend-cycle tested for as many as 100 million flex cycles. Our CoaXPress® compatible cable assemblies are transmission distance compliant up to 13 meters. We have connectors and cables specifically for robust EMI protection, and many of our connectors feature screw-lock functionality for robust connections even in environments subject to vibration and motion. A range of angled connectors opens new possibilities in imaging equipment design.
