With advancements in telematics and automotive communications technology, RF communication systems have become integral components in today’s automotive, trucking, watercraft, motorcycle, and off-road construction markets. To meet the demands of modern High-Speed GMSL Link requirements, our series provides high-performing, cost-effective RF interconnects. Our FAKRA and Mini-FAKRA cable assemblies are designed to support GMSL1/2 and GMSL3 protocols respectively, depending on connector and cable configuration, providing reliable signal paths for ADAS and high-resolution camera systems.

Embedded within a plastic housing which features multiple color codes for easy identification and unique keying to prevent mis-mating, FAKRA connectors are designed to perform up to 6 GHz and meet the particular mechanical and environmental requirements of the automotive industry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these cable assemblies compatible with GMSL2 and GMSL3 protocols?

Yes. Our high-performance FAKRA, HFM (Mini-FAKRA), and MATE-AX cable assemblies are engineered to support the physical layer requirements of GMSL2 (up to 6Gbps) and GMSL3 (up to 13.5Gbps per lane). They are optimized for signal integrity and low insertion loss across the required frequency spectrum, depending on specific connector and cable configurations.

How do these cables handle Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) in automotive environments?

GMSL links are highly sensitive to noise. Our cable assemblies utilize specialized shielded coaxial structures (such as RG174 or 1.5DS) and high-quality 360° EMI shielding in the connector housing to minimize signal degradation and support robust data transmission in complex automotive electrical environments.

What is the benefit of using Z-Code (Waterblue) FAKRA connectors for GMSL?

Z-Code is a "universal" mechanical coding. It is widely used in GMSL prototyping and universal camera modules because it can mate with most other mechanical codes (A, B, C, etc.), providing maximum flexibility during the development and testing of ADAS systems.
