Why choose V3Link SerDes
Minimize cabling
V3Link SerDes simultaneously transmits high-speed video, power, bidirectional clock, control, GPIO, I2C, I2S, and more over a single wire, enabling tiny microcoaxial cable.
Remove extra components
Our data is raw and uncompressed, so no compression processors or artifacts needed! You can also say goodbye to clocking modules, interface converters, and more.
Fix signal integrity
Inherently good signal integrity up to 15m, plus many added features to ensure that your data arrives intact even in harsh conditions.
