Up ]

 The ECS and DAQ rely on Ethernet. The racks counting houses D1, D2 and D3 are connected with Ethernet cables ending in patch-panels. All connections in these barracks are from patch-panels to patch-panels on certified Category 6 copper, unshielded twisted pair cables. (Cat 6 UTP) 1000 BaseT.

Some numbers to illustrate the size of the installation:

The official reference for the cabling is EDMS 497862.4 "Ethernet cabling in UXA85 D1, D2, D3"  (pdf)

Labeling Scheme

Each patch-panel carries a label, which identifies the patch-panel. Example D2C03B: A patch-panel in Rack C03 in the D2 barrack . The last letter "B" indicates that it is the second patch-panel in this rack. Each connected port on the patch-panels carries a label, which identifies the destination of that port. Example D2D04C12: This port is connected to port number 12, on the third patch-panel "C", in the 4th rack in the "D" rack-row in the D2 barrack.

An example photo of the labelling is here.

Connections in D3 (Subsystem racks)

The following table lists all connections from the subsystem racks in D3 to the central racks in D2. The board entry is the number of TELL1, UKL1 or Readout Supervisors, i.e. the boards which send data to the DAQ. The Creditcard PCs need switches installed in the racks. These are are accounted for in the ECS racks.
