The FIBERFOX Rotary Joint is a fiber optic expanded beam multimode solution that works with standard optical ST connections. Rotary joints are also referred to as slip rings and allow you to pass signals from a non moving part to another moving part.  Rotary joints are often needed in robotics, turbines, and other similar mechanical parts.  This rotary joint is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications where rotation is a challenge, including robotics, renewable energy (wind turbines) and government (radar stations). The innovative design ensures maximal flexibility and high data rates in rotating systems.  

Benefiting from the expanded beam technology and the precision optical alignment the system allows high rotation speed and many revolutions. 

• Rotor supported by double deep groove ball bearings
• Extremely long service life with 500 million revolutions
• Easy integration with common ST patch Cords
• Robust and compact design with stainless steel parts
• IP56 protection - two hermetically dust-tight chambers sealed by shaft seals
• Extremely service-friendly
• Reflective coated optics for wavelengths from 850nm to 1300nm
