Endeavour South Junction Box Deployed 2012-06-14

The OceanWorks Junction Box JB-11 was deployed on 2012-06-14 at Endeavour South. This south section of the Endeavour Hydrothermal Vents includes two moorings to monitor the regional circulation. This device is a Junction Box. Junction Boxes supply power and communications to deployed instruments. Junction boxes have a number of serial and ethernet ports, including 400V ethernet ports that enable connections to other junction boxes and high-voltage instruments. Junction boxes can convert high voltages to lower voltages (15V, 24V or 48V) required by many instruments. It was deployed on a fixed platform. Data from this deployment were archived and made available through Ocean Networks Canada's Oceans 3.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

OceanWorks接线盒JB-11于2012年6月14日部署于恩德华南（Endeavour South）区域。恩德华热液喷口（Endeavour Hydrothermal Vents）的该南区共布设2套锚系设备，用于监测区域环流。本设备为接线盒（Junction Box），可为部署的观测仪器提供电力供应与通信链路支持。该类接线盒配备多种串行端口与以太网端口，其中包含400V以太网端口，可用于连接其他接线盒与高压观测仪器。接线盒可将高压转换为多数仪器所需的低压（15V、24V或48V）。本次部署的接线盒搭载于固定式平台之上。本次部署产生的观测数据已完成归档，并通过加拿大海洋网络（Ocean Networks Canada）的Oceans 3.0数字基础设施对外开放；所有数据均遵循既定规范开展质量管控，并可获取衍生数据产品。
