  2. What is Xbox2? N. Catalan Lasheras • A new test bench for testing RF structures at 12GHz above 100MV/m • One structure/three months testing • 50MW klystron fed by a 50Hz, 450kV modulator • Full time operation expected from October next year. • Possible extension in 2014-15 (Xbox3) when Linac4 klystrons/waveguides are installed

  3. From last collaboration meeting. (I. Syratchev) #2 50 MW klystron (XL-5, CPI) test stand will be able to deliver to the testing area up to 130 MW x 250 ns pulses at 50 Hz repetition rate. The overall power consumption is 43 kW.
