Meridian Laboratory ROTOCON Fiber-Optic Rotary Joint Combinations
Meridian Laboratory combines ROTOCON electrical slip rings with fiber-optic rotary joints to pass electrical power or signals and optical data through a rotating assembly. It partners with optical-joint manufacturers and supplies configured integration; the offer also includes standalone optical joints. This is an assembly-selection problem involving two different transmission paths, not a universal high-speed Ethernet device.

Applications and Industries
Rotating optical data links combined with electrical power and signals in machinery and instrumentation
Industrial automation
Review Summary
Consider a combined FORJ assembly when optical data must cross a rotating boundary alongside electrical circuits. Define the fiber, wavelength, optical loss budget and actual electrical operating point first. The strongest practical benefit is coordinated integration; the main limitation is that a family bandwidth or RPM headline does not define one complete supplied configuration.
