Standard & Custom Products, from Simple to Complex SATCOM, Telemetry, Test Ranges, Data Links, Radar, Communications, Medical, Commercial & Space Rotary Joints and Slip Rings Cobham Antenna Systems rotary joints and slip rings are passive rotating transmission lines designed to pass DC and RF signals between the stationary and rotating sections with minimal degradation. They are true electromechanical devices. • Products as simple as 1 channel (1 inch long), or as complicated as 33 channels (16 feet long) • Optional slip rings and encoders for diverse platform applications, including military and commercial SATCOM terminals, telemetry, test ranges and data links. Standard rotary joints are generally available with shorter lead times and lower cost than custom products. • Standard products available for frequency ranges from DC-50 GHz • Precision ball bearing designs employed in all standard Cobham Antenna Systems products for rotational stability and long life Custom Designs Cobham Antenna Systems is the world’s foremost developer and manufacturer of custom state-of-the-art rotary joint and rotary joint sub-system technology. Cobham Antenna Systems engineering expertise in custom designs saves our customers considerable effort and expense. Our extensive and diverse custom design database will allow the selection and modification of mature designs with proven field history. Our extensive history, design and test capabilities provide the options needed when configuring complex rotating solutions. Let us work with your engineers to specify the perfect solution. • Custom designs overcome the challenge of mechanical constraints and stringent RF requirements • Non-contacting designs available for improved specifications and high reliability Standard Designs Cobham Antenna Systems product line contains standard rotary joint designs, available in a wide variety of coaxial and waveguide configurations • Precious metal contacts utilized in wideband coaxial designs for broad-band frequency performance and long life Rotary Joints Single Channel Coaxial Dual Channel Coaxial Dual Channel Dual Axis Dual Channel Waveguide 3 Channel 4 Channel Waveguide 4 Channel w/ Slip Ring 5 Channel w/ Slip Ring and Encoder 7 Channel w/ Slip Ring and Encoder 11 Channel w/ 114 circuit Slip Ring 17 Channel w/ Slip Ring and Encoders 32 Channel w/ Slip Ring
