Bit Error Rate (BER) Test in Ethernet Slip Rings - Meridian Laboratory ROTOCON Slip Ring Technology

ROTOCON Brushless Slip Rings Provide Consistent Power & Data Communication

This video tests Bit Error Rate (BER) in slip rings and demonstrates the facts about Ethernet & data transmission when using rotating Ethernet devices. Many slip ring manufacturers advertise a low BER, or even zero Bit Errors, but this is simply not factual. When it comes to Ethernet slip rings, ROTOCONs deliver results that others can only falsely claim.

MERIDIAN LABORATORY TESTS EVERY SINGLE ROTOCON ETHERNET SLIP RING, AND ENSURES THAT THE BIT ERROR RATE IS BELOW 1E-10

A traditional brushed slip ring relies on a stationary graphite or metal contact (brush) which scrapes on the outside diameter of a rotating metal ring. This type of device leads to many Bit Errors. These Bit Errors are the result of poor signal quality, and data being lost forever, potentially causing issues in an application.

Unlike conventional slip rings, every ROTOCON features a brushless oil-sealed viscous wetted contact, providing an unrivaled 360 degrees of connection. ROTOCONs routinely deliver zero Bit Errors. The signal exiting a ROTOCON is as clear as the signal that went in. There are no detectable Bit Errors or packets lost.

Benefits provided by ROTOCON brushless slip ring:
• Perfect Signal & Power All in One Package Without Affecting the Quality of the Ethernet Communication
• Consistent Power and Data Communication (Gigabit Ethernet)

Meridian Laboratory tests every single ROTOCON Ethernet slip ring, and ensures that the Bit Error Rate is below 1E-10.
