Can we use the below amazon ribbon cables to extend the 64mp or …?
Are the ribbon cables able to be disconnected from the cam and a new cable put in, or are they hardwired in?

Can we use these cables?

Since the signal transmission speed is very fast, the signal will be attenuated during the transmission process. If the cable is too long, the final effect will be bad.

We recommend using cables within 15 cm.

I am also wondering if there are practical/approved approaches to have the camera connected with a longer cable, for example, 50cm. Generally, it seems to work (in most situations), according to my experiments?

Just learned about Arducam’s own extension kit via RJ45 cables: https://www.arducam.com/15-meter-cable-extension-kit-2.html
