Original layout the distribution boards and cables
HV distribution
- Distribution panels positioned in 4 quadrants of the FCAL dark box. 9 Radial cables connected from outside to each quadrant.
- Each distribution board feeds an array of 20x20 ECAL modules, i.e., one quadrant of the ECAL (layout modified)
- Radial connector orientation: 5 vertical and 4 horizontal
- Use 9x4 = 36 CAEN A7030N modules (add 2 modules to provide the same layout of patch panels and symmetric distribution of HV cables over chains in dark room)
- HV cables inside the dark box (from dist boards to dividers) are routed through chains (left, right. top, bottom)
