Each detector is made of a large three-dimensional lattice of optical modules, connected and controlled from a remote shore-station. Each optical module is a submarine node of an extended ethernet network, comprising the onshore computing resources for the online collection and filtering of the acquired data. The data acquisition system follows the trigger-less streaming readout paradigm, with a modular and scalable design which allows the KM3NeT Collaboration to take data since the very first stages of installation. After the first phase of construction, we improved the connectivity of the optical modules, by adding new layers of data aggregation at the detector. This was achieved by means of White Rabbit switches with a readapted form-factor, fitting the KM3NeT underwater vessels. We refer to them as “Wet” White Rabbit switches, in relation to their “Dry” counterparts in the shore-stations. Wet and Dry White Rabbit switch-fabrics allow also the distribution of the timing to the optical modules with the required nanosecond accuracy, according to the standard White Rabbit protocol developed at CERN.

This article primarily focuses on the physical design of an injector for ERL-FEL, based on a Very High Frequency (VHF) electron gun with a charge of 100 pC. The beam energy is accelerated to 10 MeV using 3-cell superconducting cryomodule. The optimization of beam parameters is conducted through employment of BMad and ASTRA simulations, incorporating the concept of Merger optimization. The beam emittance is less than 0.6 mm mrad, and the peak current at the injector exit exceeds 18 A.
