iss062e103684 (3/21/2020) --- A view of the rack containing CBEF-L (Cell Biology Experiment Facility-L) IU1 and CBEF-L IU2 in the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM) Pressurized Module (JPM). aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Cell Biology Experiment Facility-L (CBEF-L) is a Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) new subrack facility, which is an upgraded facility of the original Cell Biology Experiment Facility (CBEF) currently aboard the International Space Station (ISS). CBEF-L provides new capabilities with additional new resources such as Full High Definition video interface, Ethernet, 24 VDC power supply, and a larger diameter centrifugal test environment. By using the original CBEF and CBEF-L as one facility for the same experiment, the payload user is provided with an upgraded experimental environment that can handle the processing of more experimental samples for a wider array of experiments.
