Below we propose a design for fiber connections between the Rack Room and the Hall, and network switch and terminal server placement.

Notes

  • Based on 10**8 photons/sec, 200 kHz trigger rate, existing L1 rejection algorithm, block=1 mode, no compression.
  • Ethernet port counts from Fernando's rack layouts and information from Dave Butler concerning other controls requirements.
  • We own about 15 24-port managed switches with 10 GBit/s fiber uplinks, some being used in EEL building and other places.
  • Switches can uplink 1.25 GBytes/sec.
  • 8-port managed switches with 1 GBit/s fiber uplinks exist.
  • Only managed switches (no hubs!) allowed in hall.
  • Fibers come in bundles of 12 or 24, 2 fibers needed for one uplink.
  • Standard JLab practice is to terminate all fibers in patch panel when bundles installed.
  • Bundle/patch panel installation is expensive, can run much cheaper patch fibers from switch in one rack area to patch panel in nearby rack area.
  • DAQ crates require two Ethernet connections each, one for the ROC and one for the fan tray.
  • Some ROC's are only used for control, not DAQ (e.g. BCAL LED Pulser).
  • ROC's each need an RS232 connection to a terminal server, terminal servers require an Ethernet connection.
  • Each terminal server has xxx ports.
  • Can run copper RS232 patch cable from one rack area to terminal server in nearby rack area.
  • Will eventually need direct fiber link to ROC if max bandwidth > 80 MB/s, assuming 10**8 photons/sec.


Finally

  • No multi-mode fibers are included below, let us know if you need them run anywhere.
