The electro-optical cabling system for the NEMO Phase-2 tower

  • 1. INFN Laboratori Nazionali del Sud, Catania (Italy)

Description

The cable system layout for the NEMO Phase-2 project has been studied starting from the experience obtained after NEMO Phase-1 deployment. The aim has been to improve the reliability and simplify the integration procedures of the system. This has been attained by reducing the number of optical fibers in the backbone and by an improved layout of the optical links in the cabling. Moreover, an optimization in order to reduce the cost, in view of a large scale industrial production, has been performed. The design characteristics of the cabling system proposed for the detector line are presented.
