Conclusions

Options for Optical Links at SLHC are:




Reuse existing system (open to CMS only)
Reuse fiber plant only (open to CMS and ATLAS Pixels)
Start from scratch (possibly using components identical to existing ones).
Check margins of existing components thoroughly

Investigate Laser and PIN diodes in depth




Will we reach the total dose limit at SLHC?
Draw a line of usability at SLHC, with safety margin.
Investigate electronic mitigation techniques (total dose and SEE).
For new components, concentrate on only very few options.



Generic and versatile
The joint optoelectronics working group has the potential to coordinate a
few parallel projects across experiments.
System level aspects to be addressed by the experiments.
