To facilitate in vivo experiments combining the light stimulation and electrophysiological recordings in optogenetics experiments, we have developed a passive low torque hybrid rotary joint with a number of electrical channels and one optical channel. The FC receptacles on both ends of the rotary joint allow the connection of the input and output fiber-optic patch cords. This product is more compact than the combination of the electrical rotary joint and the 1x1 fiber-optic rotary joint where the optical fiber is passed through the central hole of the electrical joint.


Items includes : 

  • 1 Passive 1x1 Fiber-optic & Electric Rotary Joints - 12 contacts
  • 1 Holder for the Fiber-optic & Electrical Rotary Joint
  • 1 adapter allowing the fixing on the optional horizontal cable holder
