Abstract: High energy physics mainly studies elementary particles and the interactions among them through various types of experiments, which yield a tremendous amount of data every day. Also the high energy physics experiments are regional-crossing. How to transfer experimental data reliably and efficiently in real time from the on-site detector to a data center for processing and analysis is one of the most important research topics for each experiment. After considering the requirements from different experiments, this paper introduces a general purpose data transfer system, which meets the needs of various high energy physics experiments through the way of interface definition and configuration files. The system provides the following functions:multipath source data scanning, data transferring, system information sharing, system configuration, log management and performance monitoring. At present, the system has been used by the experiment of Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory to transfer the data of photomultiplier tube measurements. The good performance of real operation shows the that system satisfies the experiment’s requirements.
