BRATOL monthly meeting

Andrea Boccardi (CERN)

Monthly meeting on the advancement of the BI-EP collaboration for the development of the BI rad-tol optical links

The production for the CTTx is in time and a full demonstrator will be finalised in June.

The full production and COTS procurement should be finalised in 2025.

 

The CTRx is advancing but for the ROSA there are still major uncertainty. The preferred company did provide technical specifications, which is a good sign, but is still not committing and communication is slow: contacts with other companies (Taiwaese) will be boosted.

The number of MUXes for the BLM link will be provided in October, which is compatible with the production and procurement schedule for the link.
