With gold plated rings and gold alloy brushes, the H Series miniature slip-ring assemblies is suitable for all video and digital signals
In response to customer demand, the innovative H18/FORJ has been designed for robotic and military applications that need high-speed data transfer as well as conventional optical signal and power.
Used for transferring large amounts of information through a rotational interface, fibre-optic joints produce little interference and are particularly useful in hazardous environments.
The latest addition to the popular H Series is suitable for high-datarate transmission of up to 2.5Gbyte/s.
Ideal for retrofit projects and upgrades, it measures only 87.7mm long and can be easily mounted using the 5.5mm diameter holes in the flange.
The rugged assemblies can be used at temperatures from -20 to +60C and provide a maximum speed of up to 500rev/min.
