Your safety
This section informs about issues related to your personal safety. Descriptions
explain how to avoid hazards and use deserializer boards safely.
Handling hot deserializer boards
Electrical components of deserializer boards get hot during operation.
Before operation, include deserializer boards in housings that disable any contact
to hot components.
Product safety
To prevent material damage, read the following to understand risks in using
deserializer boards.
ESD
ESD is dangerous for electronic devices, especially when tools or hands get in
contact with connectors and electronic components. We recommend measures to
avoid damage by ESD:
• Unpacking: Remove the deserializer board from its anti-static packaging only
when your body is grounded.
• Workplace: Use a static-safe workplace with static-dissipative mat and air
ionization.
• Wrist strap: Wear a static-dissipative wrist strap to ground your body.
• Clothing: Wear ESD clothing. Keep components away from your body and
clothing. Even if you are wearing a wrist strap, your body is grounded but your
clothes are not.
Electrical connections
GMSL2 does not specify electrical connections as extensively as the USB or GigE
standard. Plug and play is not supported. Read specifications carefully.
Components can easily be damaged. If you are unfamiliar with GMSL2 connections
or with embedded systems, be extremely careful. Follow the instructions in the
Alvium FP3/GM2 Coax User Guide.
Allied Vision accessories help to avoid damage to the camera and connected
components.
Compatible accessories
We recommend using accessories by Allied Vision, see www.alliedvision.com/en/

Strain relief for all cable connections
If FAKRA coaxial connectors are exposed to excessive stress, they can break off
from devices. Hirose FH55 FPC connectors can be damaged easily.
Provide sufficient strain relief for all cable connections to avoid malfunctions and
damage to electronics by wrong polarity and short circuits. To protect cameras and
connected components, secure cables as shown in Figure 1.
FAKRA coaxial connectors and cables
FAKRA coaxial connectors enable a robust connection. However, if the cable is
overstressed, these connectors can break off from devices.
• Unlock the cable connector while you are disconnecting devices.
• Avoid stress to FAKRA coaxial connectors and cables.
• Observe the minimum bending radius for coaxial cables.
• Observe instructions for Strain relief for all cable connections on page 20.
• Follow the instructions in Connecting FAKRA coaxial cables on page 29.
