Abstract:
An identification labeling system having a faceplate with a recess and a label cover that may be retained within the recess. The label cover may have compartments for retaining identification labels. The label cover has latching legs and the recess has a complementary retention ledge. A lift slot may be provided to facilitate removal of the label cover. The recess may contain holes to accommodate individual molded identification icons. The recess may include tapered corners to accommodate strip labels of different widths and lengths, such labels being positioned by the tapered corners of the recess and the label cover. The recess includes end configurations that prevent a label from passing through the surface of the faceplate. The label cover has a thickness so as to be flush with the faceplate. The label may be the same color as the faceplate.

Abstract:
An electrical adapter (100) includes an insulative casing defining a receiving space therein. The receiving space has a first opening (30) opened to an exterior in a lengthwise direction and a second opening (451) opened to an exterior in a lateral direction wherein the lengthwise and lateral directions are perpendicular to each other. A first connector unit (1) occupies the first opening along the lengthwise direction and a second connector unit (2) occupies the second opening along the lateral direction and electrically connected with the first connector unit.
Abstract:
A cable system is provided that allows a computer to communicate or share data with a variety of cellular phones having different interface connectors. The cable system includes a base cable and a plurality of adapter cables. The plurality of adapter cables are adapted to communicably couple to the base cable. Each of the adapter cables is configured to communicably couple with one of the plurality of cellular phones. Depending on the cellular phone a user is using, the user may select one adapter cable from the plurality of adapter cables, which is configured to communicably couple with the user's cellular phone. The base cable is adapted to communicably couple with the computer. With the communication line linked from the PC to the base cable, from base cable to the selected adapter cable, and from the selected base cable to the user's cellular phone, the PC may exchange electronic data with the cellular phone.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for crosstalk compensation in a jack of a modular communications connector includes a flexible printed circuit board connected to jack contacts and to connections to a network cable. The flexible printed circuit board includes conductive traces arranged as one or more couplings to provide crosstalk compensation.
Abstract:
A case containing an optical interface section including a connector-fitting unit in its front portion, a printed board in its central portion, and an electrical interface section in its rear portion is accommodated in a housing. When a data link module is inserted in a cage, a housing tongue and a through hole both formed in a bottom plate of the housing are overlapped with a cage tongue and a lock pin both provided in and on a bottom plate of the cage, into and from which the data link module is inserted and removed, such that the lock pin is engaged in and locked by the lock hole. When removing the data link module from the cage, by angularly turning a bail pivotally supported by the connector-fitting unit, the cage tongue is pushed down following to the housing tongue with the camming operation of a plate cam, thus causing the lock hole to be disengaged from the lock pin.
Abstract:
An angled patch panel is provided that is configured to be mounted to a rack or console. The angled patch panel facilitates cable management functions and enhances space utilization at and around the rack/patch panel assembly. The angled patch panel includes first and second patch panel elements that are angularly oriented with respect to each other. The transition from the first patch panel element to the second patch panel element is generally achieved in an apex region. The angled patch panel also includes flange members that extend from the first and second patch panel elements. Each of the flange members define a mounting face and an extension arm that is intermediate the mounting face and the patch panel element. The extension arm is dimensioned to facilitate at least partial recessing of the angled patch panel relative to the rack/console when the angled patch panel is mounted thereto.
Abstract:
An object is to provide a compact AC adaptor integral-type household-power-line coupler capable of simplifying a structural arrangement of an apparatus containing a communication terminal, and also capable of improving a handling characteristic and an outer appearance thereof. The AC adaptor integral-type household-power-line coupler is arranged by employing a household-power-line power converting/supplying unit 7 connected to a plug unit 4, for supplying electric power to a communication terminal, the plug unit being employed to be coupled to a household-power-line plug socket; a household-power-line carrier signal coupling unit 8 for inputting/outputting a signal via the plug unit 4 to the communication terminal; and a casing unit 6 containing thereinto both the household-power-line power converting/supplying unit 7 and the household-power-line carrier signal coupling unit 8.
Abstract:
An adapter for use with existing network tap modules to be received by a housing that supports hot-pluggable modules. The adapter allows an existing network tap module to connect to a power supply connector and power supply included with a housing for network tap modules. The housing allows the user to maintain all network taps in any given system in one housing and location. This increases the ease of maintaining multiple network taps and allows the network tap modules to be powered by a power supply included with the housing. The adapter allows use of the housing with existing network tap modules, eliminating any need to replace existing modules in order to use the housing.
Abstract:
A router includes WIC and Network Module slots that be reconfigured to hold cards and network modules having different form factors. A motherboard/midplane arrangement provides for a field replaceable motherboard that can be replaced without removing the router from the rack.
