How to choose the appropriate camera lens connector based on the product positioning

Professional photography equipment and industrial cameras: suitable for 12pin connectors. 12pin connectors support multi-channel data transmission. The advantage is that it can process multi-dimensional data at the same time, and the cost is relatively high.
Ordinary cameras: The streamlined design of the 8pin connector meets the basic power supply and data transmission requirements, with lower cost, and is suitable for scenes with low requirements for functional complexity.

How to choose the plating layer?

Gold plating: Gold plating can improve conductivity, significantly reduce contact resistance, ensure stable transmission of large current and high-speed signals, and reduce signal attenuation. It is also resistant to oxidation and corrosion. Gold has almost no chemical reaction in a humid and dusty environment, and can keep the contacts clean for a long time to avoid poor contact due to oxidation, but the cost is relatively high.

Nickel plating: It is relatively expensive and is a silver-white metal, but it has poor conductivity, hard texture, and smooth surface. It is often used as the base plating for gold plating. It has poor weldability. Most steel contacts are nickel-plated, but they must be copper-plated first. Copper nickel plating can withstand temperatures of 340 degrees, while brass and bronze can reach 250 degrees.

Silver plating: glossy white, precious metal, soft, good conductivity, easy to oxidize, so it is easy to lose its luster. Brass or bronze tin plating can withstand temperatures of 110 degrees, and copper can withstand temperatures of 250 degrees.
