Summary:A slip ring arrangement is simple to produce for contactless data transmission for high-frequency data signals, wherein two optical components are provided which are rotatable relative to one another about a common axis of rotation. The first optical component has a plurality of optical fibers which are disposed along at least one circular arc segment having a radius on a first end face. For this purpose the fibers are guided in a first carrier which has a coupling surface to which a first planar optical waveguide chip configured as a combiner is coupled.
