Versatile Link⁺ transceiver production

Abstract The Versatile Link+ project targeting the Phase 2 HL-LHC detector upgrades is entering the production phase. After several years of prototyping, the industrialisation of the Versatile Link+ Transceiver (VTRx+) was launched in 2021 and the production is scheduled to start in 2022. We describe the extensive qualification effort carried out and the quality assurance procedures put in place to monitor the manufacturing quality. We summarise the experience of the industrialisation and we present the plans for the production.
