4 Security is nowadays the key in a rapidly growing civilization. This affects air and naval traffic management as well as border security and remote communication. This relies mostly on highly sophisticated radar, communication and satellite systems. As an international leader in innovation, SPINNER is a reliable supplier of advanced components for radar and satellite systems. Since the early sixties SPINNER sets standards worldwide. Our innovations in this field together with our technical know-how and our top quality claim have allowed us to become one of the leading rotary joint manufacturers. Rotary joints are needed wherever signals have to be transmitted between a fixed platform and a second platform in continuous rotation. Such applications include traditional radar technology for air traffic control or anti-missile defence, medical engineering, V-Sat and SatCom technology as well as industrial applications like TV camera systems or cable drums that allow sensitive cables to be wound up without twisting them, thus increasing their reliability. Special benefits of SPINNER rotary joints are their compact design, excellent VSWR and low insertion loss, low variation of transmission properties during rotation, and high crosstalk attenuation between the individual channels over the whole frequency range. The wealth of experience that our engineers have with rotary joints in extraterrestrial use and our commitment to continuous product improvement are the basis of our great success. When it comes to application in space, all major customers in Europe already trust in our rotary joints. 4 Data subject to change without notice Edition B

6 COMBINATIONS OF ROTARY JOINTS SPINNER has gained expertise in design, manufacturing and maintenance of complex multichannel rotary joints over the last 40 years. Meanwhile, SPINNER has developed more than 20,000 different rotary joint assemblies. These are not limited to SPINNER s core competence in optical and RF rotary joint solutions. We provide complex hybrid solutions that qualify SPINNER as an excellent partner for modern civil and military radar systems. Fiber optic channel combinations Due to constantly increasing data rates, fiber optic rotary joints are becoming more popular. SPINNER designed a fiber optic rotary joint that can be integrated into the inner conductor of a coax channel with a diameter of only 3 mm. Waveguide Coaxial Slip ring combinations These are the most commonly used combinations for high performance radar systems. Normally, one or two high power channels (coax / waveguide) are combined with several low power channels. Slip ring modules for power supply and data transmission are additionally integrated. Ethernet transmisson For data transmission over rotary joints we provide a non-contacting Ethernet solution that perfectly meets the demand of high-speed data transmission. That solution supports flexible data rates from 10 MBit up to 1 GBit and can be integrated into hybrid rotary joint combinations. 6 Data subject to change without notice Edition B

7 Media joints Highly integrated radar systems with radio frequency (RF) amplifiers right behind the rotating antenna often require access to cooling liquid. Media joint solutions, that transport cooling liquid or simply air through the joint to cool of active components, are available for intergration as well. Non-contacting RF rotary joints RF signals can be transmitted via axial and radial coupling structures. Non-contacting solutions have an excellent lifetime and are used for narrow band transmissions. Additionally, with special coupling structures, two different bands can be transmitted within one module (e.g. X- and L-Band). Contacting RF rotary joints The inner and outer conductors of stator and rotor are DC coupled. These rotary joints are used for broadband applications. If a coaxial structure is used, the cut-off frequency depends on the diameter of the coaxial line. In some cases, specially designed slip rings can be used at lower frequencies.

9 SINGLE CHANNEL & MULTICHANNEL FIBER OPTIC ROTARY JOINTS Whether it is in industry or in the military sector the need to transmit ever increasing volumes of data with growing rates of data is getting bigger and bigger all the time. In the area of radar the trend of positioning the transmitter along with the signal generation directly on the turning antenna platform and realising the control via a rapid interference-proof optical data connection is gaining in importance. SPINNER is following this trend and for this very purpose has developed a range of optical rotary joints which fulfil exactly this task either stand-alone or installed in hybrid RF rotary joints. In the following section you can find optical single channel or multichannel rotary joints in single or multimode designs. One highlight is the 6 channel rotary joint which was developed especially for the simultaneous transmission of analogue signals and which is currently the smallest of its kind on the worldwide market. It goes without saying that the simultaneous transmission of analogue and (multiplexed) digital signals at a high decoupling and low insertion loss is also possible. All parts of the rotary joints are manufactured on precision machines, with the assembly being completed in the clean room. This guarantees the consistently high quality of these maintenance-free, optical rotary joints. Following connector interfaces represent the standard selection. Further customised design can be arranged on request.

19 SINGLE CHANNEL COAX ROTARY JOINTS In a variety of aerospace, maritime, industrial and automotive applications in communication and radar systems, SPINNER's highly reliable coax rotary joints are part of the solution. Recently, several SatCom terminals and other mobile tracking platforms have been equipped with our low form factor designs. Our standard portfolio consists of single, dual and 3 channel rotary joints in a frequency range from DC up to 50 GHz. We distinguish basically between contacting and non-contacting designs: In case of contacting rotary joints, the inner and outer conductor of stator and rotor are DC coupled. These rotary joints are used for broadband applications. If a coaxial structure is used, the cut-off frequency depends on the diameter of the coaxial line. In case of non-contacting rotary joints, RF signals can be transmitted via axial or radial coupling structures. Non-contacting solutions have an excellent lifetime and RF performance for narrow band transmission. On customer request, coaxial rotary joints can be combined excellently with slip rings for additional low frequency data or power transmission, as well as with Fast Ethernet modules and other transmission modules.

These systems are used to build up a communication link for example in remote areas where no fixed line or WIFI or even mobile communication is available. That happens with the help of a mobile platform that tracks geostationary satellites. The system itself is installed on a vehicle or trailer and can only be operated when the vehicle or trailer is parked. The azimuth axis of the antenna system allows 360 degrees of rotation due to the use of our rotary joints. The 3 channel rotary joint assembly is used to avoid cable entanglement. Two channels are used as Rx and Tx ports whereas the third channel is kept as spare Rx port. The spare channel is mainly for security reasons to increase the availability of the overall system.

75 WAVEGUIDE ROTARY JOINTS Military and civil solutions for radar, satellite communication and space applications require waveguide rotary joints. SPINNER offers the complete range up to 94 GHz to help its customers with outstanding solutions. The product line follows a common design philosophy that is characterized by excellent electrical and mechanical performance, allied to a highly reliable design. Although realised in a non-contacting design which guarantees a long lifetime of a minimum of 20 million revolutions, SPINNER's waveguide rotary joints are characterised by large frequency bandwith and high power capability. Advanced electromagnetic designs employing milled impedance transformers result in superior return loss and insertions loss figures. Excellent electrical and mechanical performance and longest lifetime define these solutions as a reference standard. Data subject to change without notice Edition B 75
