  • The GBLD will be characterised based on the stricter fluence missing better estimations
  • The MUX procurement will be led by BI
    • A decision on the topology of the BPM is needed to define how many and which type of MUX to buy
      • For the BPM it was cleared out the fact that the MUX will not work independently of the pairing ot the wavelenght
      • The use of a 2 way mux is not an option given the previous point
    • BLM might not need MUX if
      • The BPM system will not need an additional fiber for clock transmission
      • The BLM and BPM can accept having only one spare fibre
    • Manoel was asked to provide a block diagram of the current readout scheme <- Action Manoel
