+  \item[Plates]{A technical drawing of the holding plates for TRBs can be found on the webpage. 2mm aluminium suits best. Note that plates for TRB2 and TRB3 are slightly different to accomodate position of SFPs and to allow air-flow underneath the AddOns.}
+  \item[Fan Holder]{A technical drawing of a small holder for 12cm fans is available on the webpage.}
+  \item[Necessary bolts and screws] Necessary material for mounting one TRB3:
+   \begin{itemize*} 
+    \item 4x M4 distance bolts, 60 -- 120 mm (for stacking plates)
+    \item 8x M4 distance bolts, 5 mm / or 4x nut, 4x screw (for stacking plates)
+    \item 4x M3 distance bolts, ~ 2 cm (stands for TRB3)
+    \item 4x M3 screw, 6 mm (stands for TRB3)
+    \item 4x M3 distance bolts 5mm, or 4x nut (stands for TRB3)
+    \item 8x M3 distance bolts 16 mm plastic (AddOn holder)
+    \item 8x M3 screw, 6 mm (AddOn holder)
+    \item 2x M4 screw, 6 mm (Fan holder)
+    \item 2x M5 screw, 6 mm (Fan holder) 
+   \end{itemize*}
+   Using small 5mm distance bolts instead of nuts and screws, all (un-)screwing can be done by hand, without tools, which is quite helpful on built-in boards.

+\subsection{Electronics}
+  \begin{description}
+   \item[TRB3 Trigger Distributor]~\\
+    Trigger Distributor tailored to TRB3. All RJ-45 connectors - plug'n'play! Can be mounted in a TRB stack. Use flat Ethernet cables to improve handling.
+   \item[1:10 LVDS fan-out]~\\
+    The good old ten-fold fan-out board using standard pin-header (with secured connector)
+   \item[8x 1:4 LVDS fan-out]~\\
+    8 LVDS inputs to 3x 8 outputs. Plus 8 TTL outputs on Lemo connectors for easy connection to a scope. Plus a analog multiplicity output with 100mV amplitude. Fits to TRB3 stack.
+   \item[RJ-45 to pin-header]~\\
+    Adaptor from RJ-45 to four times dual pin-header (with clips to secure connector). In case one has to connect individual signals to the RJ-45 inputs of the TRB.
+   \item[LCD]~\\
+    The debugging output of the TRB3 can be used to connect a 320x240 color LCD to show the status of some variables. Available for less than 10 Euro, including an adaptor for easy connection. Schematics can be found in the electronics.git. 
+   \item[USB for Instek power supplies]~\\
+    The common Instek PSP-405 power supplies have a peculiar RS232 interface. A matching adaptor to USB as plug-on module. Schematics can be found in the electronics.git.
+   \item[USB-to-RS232 with optocouplers]~\\
+    A simple USB-to-serial adaptor including optocouplers - not related to the TRB3, but still quite handy. Schematics can be found in the electronics.git.
+   \item[USB-to-serial (TTL)]~\\
+    A simple USB-to-serial converter using TTL (5V or 3.3V) levels instead of RS232. Schematics can be found in the electronics.git.
