Fiber Optic Rotary Joints

H24

Hybrid FORJ

The H24 fiber optic rotary joints effectively combine a compact electrical slip ring with a fiber optic rotating joint. It offers the flexibility of electrical, power and optical signal transfer through a single rotational joint. The H24 is a low cost solution for high data rate transmission to greater than 2.5 Gb / sec on the optical channel.
