Camera Cable Connector

Skip to comments   Jump to end

ezb camera cable is too short. I need a longer cable. I searched the community but didn't find a good solution. The connector is a special connector custom-made by ezb, or is there some standard connector I could find from connector makers to make an extension cable ?
What kind of connector is that ?

I took 2 camera cables and some header pins I got from a electronic shop. I pulled the pins out of the plastic header strip and stuck the pins in one cable and pushed the plugs together. I put a drop of hot glue on the plastic plugs to be sure the two cables stayed together.

If you can't get the pins try to find some small solid copper wire that fits snug in the holes in the cable connector and use that. Just cut them long enough so the cable connectors come together. You may try using the pins from old servo cables. You can cut them off the connector, but I am not sure the will be long enough. You will have to try it.

Thanks everybody. I know EZB makes the cable , but to purchase here from them is costly and takes a long time. European reseller RobotShop doesn't have the cable , only a connector kit, pitch 2 mm , but only for 2-3-4 pins, not for 6 pins. I don't have two cables to connect together. I think to cut the cam cable and to solder some flat cable to extend it. Not a very good work !

That's right, I purchased the kit and crimpers and realized it did not include 6 pin after it arrived and had to go out and source the 6 pin female connector. I will look and post where I got them. For my Inmoov, I am going to need 2 more real long camera cables myself. Sorry for the incorrect post.
