Abstract: A system includes a first optical communication interface and a second optical communication interface optically coupled via a free-space communication channel. The interfaces are spaced at variable distances. Each interface includes an optical source to provide a beam of electromagnetic energy and an optical receiver to receive the beam to bi-directionally communicate with the other interface via the channel. The first optical communication interface may be coupled to a sub-chassis. The second optical communication interface may be coupled to a device frame. The device frame may be movably coupled to the chassis. Communication may utilize multi-input, multi-output processing configured by a calibration matrix. A shutter may be positioned to receive the beam or be positioned clear of the beam depending on the distance between the interfaces.

Abstract: A printed circuit board assembly includes a printed circuit board having a plurality of signal lanes. The PCBA also includes at least one application-specific integrated circuit operatively mounted to the printed circuit board and connected with the plurality of signal lanes. The PCBA includes a first configuration element operatively mounted to the printed circuit board in a first orientation and at a first location and having a first bridging element for providing an electrical connection between at least a first pair of signal lanes selected from the plurality of signal lanes. The first configuration element also includes a second bridging element so that if the first configuration element were operatively mounted to the printed circuit board in a different, second orientation relative to the printed circuit board, the second bridging element would provide an electrical connection between at least a second pair of signal lanes.

Abstract: A system includes an enclosure with a device space having a layer of active devices arranged into rows and adjacent cooling channels and an inlet partition having apertures aligned to the cooling channels defining a supply plenum. In a method of use, cooling fluid, such as air, is transferred from the supply plenum to the cooling channels to concurrently cool the layer of active devices and may provide substantially the same temperature and flow of cooling fluid to each row of active devices. Active devices may include storage devices. The supply plenum may include elongate ducts to encourage uniform cooling along a row. The supply plenum may also include a duct partition or more than one supply plenum to encourage uniform cooling among the rows. One or more fans may provide pressurized cooling fluid in the supply plenum space.
