Description
White Rabbit (WR) [1] is a multi-laboratory, multi-company collaboration to design the next generation of data transmission and synchronization system for CERN accelerators and other facilities. WR is fully made of Open Source Hardware and Software. After a quick introduction to the technology and the project, we will go through the services offered by BE-CO-HT to WR users as well as recent developments on data transmission robustness, standardization under IEEE 1588 and RF distribution using WR, such as needed for e.g. distributing the LHC bunch crossing frequency in a delay-compensated way. There will be a demo session at the end.

The seminar will be followed by a ~20min demo for those interested.
