The telescope is a 2.5-m altitude over azimuth design. The secondary truss elements are fabricated of carbon fiber reinforced plastic for high thermal stability. The Cassegrain instrument rotator is very large and covers almost all of the back of the primary support structure.

The telescope motions are implemented with rolling element bearings and friction-coupled drives and encoding. The quality of the drive components must be measured and understood to determine if the telescope tracking performance will be such that its scientific goals can be accomplished.

The optical fibers that transport light from the images of astronomical objects in the telescope focal plane to the spectrographs must be protected and properly positioned. The SDSS fiber system uses 640 optical fibers organized into 32 harnesses each containing 20 fibers. Each fiber is approximately 2 m long. The fibers are supported and protected by a large aluminum cartridge called a plug-plate cartridge.

The 2.5-m telescope optical design produces good images over a 3 degree diameter field of view. The quality of the fabrication and support of the optics must be such that the optical design can be realized.

It is possible to obtain the spectra of a large number of astronomical objects concurrently by transporting their light via optical fibers from the focal surface of a telescope to the input of a spectrograph. One way to hold the fibers on the focal surface is by plugging them in holes previously drilled in a plate.

Clouds, even when thin, can severely degrade certain types of astronomical observations. Such clouds cannot be detected easily on dark nights. The infrared cloud scanner produces images of cloud distribution independent of illumination.
