Legacy 20 meter cable

Warning

Since the introduction of Pickit 3.0, this cable is not a supported Pickit product anymore. Refer to this article to learn about the current 20 meter cable solution.

The legacy version of our 20 meter cabling solution has:

• A type-A USB plug on the processor side.

• 3 x USB hubs, every 5 meters.

• An 8 pin M12 screwing connector on the Pickit camera side.

This cable is suceptible to suffer from connection failures when installed in an environment with high electromagnetic disturbances. It doesn’t pass the standardized EMI immunity test mentioned in the robot mounting kit article.
