DescriptionThe ESE Series Ethernet slip ring is a rotating assembly for transferring power, control circuits and data (analog and digital) from stationary inlets to rotating outlets. Models support 100Base-T and 1000Base-T Ethernet along with combinations of 2 A, 5 A and 10 A power circuits. The series uses gold-on-gold contacts to reduce electrical noise and extend service life. Standard units are available with 8 to 51 circuits. Seals are provided for light dust and splash; an optional IP65 protective enclosure is available.
