abstract = {Fermilab’s PIP-II accelerator is pursuing the developing a new generalized DAQ system using gigabit ethernet as the communication protocol. The system uses standard rackmount servers and commodity ethernet switches for the front-end, which is a very low cost compared to standard platforms such as VME and uTCA. We use our own client-server protocol for GigE communication between the server and our custom in-house FPGA based digitizers. This allows for a lot of flexibility such that a single server can serve multiple different front-end systems (BPMs, current monitors, BLMs, etc). At PIP2IT, we have configured a system utilizing a single rackmount server and a 10-gigabit switch communicating with two VME crates housing digitizers for the BPM system. Each digitizer card is connected directly to the switch. The VME crates are just used for power and cooling. This talk will present the system architecture and initial results of operation at PIP2IT.},
