Barkley Canyon Mid-West Junction Box Deployed 2010-05-16

The OceanWorks Junction Box JB-04 was deployed on 2010-05-16 at Barkley Canyon Mid-West. Barkley Canyon Mid-West is a location in Barkley Canyon near a canyon wall. At this location, benthic processes, biodiversity, and sediment dynamics are observed. 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 2.0 digital infrastructure, with quality assurance and derived data products following established practices.

OceanWorks JB-04型接线盒（Junction Box）于2010年5月16日部署于巴克利峡谷中西部海域。该区域坐落于巴克利峡谷内、毗邻峡谷岩壁，在此处开展底栖过程、生物多样性及沉积物动力学相关观测。该设备为接线盒，可为部署的观测仪器提供电力与通信支持。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；同时可将高压转换为多数仪器所需的低压（15V、24V或48V）。该接线盒部署于固定平台之上。本次部署获取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 2.0数字基础设施对外共享，所有数据均遵循既定规范开展质量管控与衍生数据产品制作。
