Vehicle camera with connector system for high speed transmission

A vehicular camera, said vehicular camera comprising:

• a front housing portion comprising at least one lens;
• an imager circuit board having an imager established thereat, wherein said imager circuit board is attached at said front housing portion with said imager aligned with said at least one lens;
• a connector circuit board having circuitry established thereat;
• a rear housing portion having a connector configured for electrically connecting to a connector end of a wire harness of a vehicle when said vehicular camera is disposed at the vehicle;
• wherein said rear housing portion comprises internal wall structure establishing internal wall surfaces of said rear housing portion;
• wherein said connector of said rear housing portion comprises a coaxial connector having a center conductor and an outer conductor, and wherein said center conductor and said outer conductor electrically connect to circuitry at said connector circuit board;
• wherein said connector circuit board is attached at said rear housing portion and holds said center conductor and said outer conductor of said coaxial connector electrically engaged with circuitry of said connector circuit board;
• an electrically conductive metallic shield element disposed within said rear housing portion and corresponding with said internal wall surfaces of said rear housing portion;
• and
• wherein said front housing portion is joined with said rear housing portion.
