Sensor interface cables
Payload cable purchasing must distinguish physical connector fit from pinout and data integrity. Camera and GNSS cables may have model-specific requirements.
What to specify
Use these fields to describe your requirement. Values are supplied by the buyer or the responsible integrator; this reference does not list an in-stock SKU or a universally compatible replacement.
| Requirement | Information to include |
|---|---|
| Endpoints | Exact device and mating connectors |
| Assignment | Signal, power and ground pinout |
| Length | Total and branch dimensions |
| Data | Bandwidth and shielding needs |
| Motion | Bend and gimbal travel |
| Test | Continuity and functional acceptance |
Sample and acceptance review
Request a controlled cable drawing and device-specific compatibility confirmation. Include a routed sample in integration review.
A common purchasing mistake
A visually identical plug can carry a different supply voltage or signal assignment.

Review power and data as one payload interface
A payload can have the right data interface but an unsuitable power or connector arrangement. Include startup behavior and cable routing in the initial requirements.
