Abstract: Multiplexer (100) according to the present invention includes: an input unit (11) to which a plurality of image signals based on a first data communication standard are input, the image signals being acquired by respective imaging devices (2); an output unit (14) that outputs an image signal based on a second data communication standard having a data transfer rate lower than that of the first data communication standard; and a storage unit (12) that temporarily buffers the image signals input from the input unit (11). With such a multiplexer 100, it is possible to collectively convert the image data acquired by a plurality of imaging devices adopting a certain data communication standard into another data communication standard and suppress the data transfer delay caused by the conversion.
