Abstract
The purpose of this document is to summarise ATLAS front-end
read-out link architectures. Read-out links are used to transfer
data from front-end electronics systems placed on detector to
off-detector read-out drivers. The detector-specific information
presented in this document has been obtained from the following
set of `link contacts'.

The dynamic nature of the opto-electronics industry and the different
time-scales
for the implementation of optical read-out links between ATLAS subdetectors
means that the
contents of this document are liable to change. As this document is intended
to be a useful
reference, such changes will be added to the document as appropriate and
documented in full
on the following page.
