The demand for efficient, secure networking for industrial environments is growing steadily. A fibre-optic solution is often the only possibility for ensuring sufficient data rates in today's facilities. HARTING has developed a bi-directional fibre-optic rotary joint especially for industrial environments. This integrated system solution enables a rotating facility component to be connected to a static component over glass-fibre.

Such connections are required for wind turbines, in all areas of industry, and for machinery and facility construction.

Your advantages at a glance


  • robust, saltwater-resistant stainless steel housing

  • bi-directional Ethernet data transmission

  • stable for temperatures from -40° C to + 85° C

  • ST termination on the rotary joint: enables versatile selection of cable type that is suitable for your application

  • protection class IP20, extendable to IP56

  • all cabling optimised for the customer and application

  • stable optical data transmission in industrial environments

  • a forward-looking system solutions for robotics, crane industry and mining that is also a safe investment.
