Abstract
An overview of an optical network design for a Very Large Volume neutrino Telescope (VLVnT) [Proceedings of the Workshop on Technical aspects of a VLVnT in the Mediterranean Sea, ISBN90-6488-026-3] residing on the seabed is presented. The passive optical network transports all data to shore in a synchronous way without data congestion. Due to fixed propagation delay and low jitter over the fiber network an accurate event time stamp can be generated onshore. The determined signal propagation can also serve for detector calibration. The results of a proto type vertical cable test are presented.
