Camera Link video input connector
The Camera Link video input connector is a 26-pin high-density mini D ribbon
(MDR) connector. It is used to receive video input, timing, and synchronization
signals and transmit/receive communication signals between the video source and
the frame grabber. The pinout of this connector follows the Camera Link standard.
