Kel's Imaging application examples

Imaging Technology and Digital Cameras

KEL’s connectors for micro coaxial cables, designed to be light, thin, small, and enable high-speed transmission characteristics, realize the most advanced connection technology required for imaging devices.


Surveillance and Security Cameras

Surveillance and Security Cameras

Surveillance cameras are often used outdoors, so it is essential to take measures against noise and improve the product’s strength. In recent years, high-resolution images is also required to support face recognition.

KEL’s connectors for micro coaxial cables for surveillance & security cameras support high-speed transmission characteristics and have a metal shell surrounding the connector on the board side to prevent noise, improve product strength, and strengthen the ground.

Digital Cameras

Digital Cameras

High-quality and robust connectors must be used for vital parts, such as camera image sensors.

KEL’s connectors are ideal for digital cameras, with micro coaxial cables that provide high flexibility and high-speed transmission characteristics and floating connectors that contribute to lowering devices costs.

Digital Video Cameras

Digital Video Cameras

Digital video cameras are becoming smaller and lighter while pixel size increases each year.

KEL’s connectors, which combine miniaturization with high image quality, are used in various applications, from general-purpose models to high-end devices for broadcasters.
