Abstract: A method and device for interconnecting optical components, such as optical fibers and optical circuits, in a flexible, repeatable, and cost-effective manner. Two or more optical components are interconnected by a flexible optical circuit substrate bearing one or more embedded optical fibers with a lens at each end of each fiber. The flexible optical circuit may be incorporated into a housing bearing apertures for receiving the optical connectors of the optical components that are to be interconnected with the device. The lensed ends of the fibers embedded in the flexible optical circuit are positioned adjacent to the apertures for optically connecting to the fibers within the connectors installed in the apertures without conventional mating connectors disposed inside the housing.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a system for mounting components to a rack comprising brackets that can be mounted to the rear of the rack through the opening in the front of rack before the component is inserted into the slot and mating sleeves running along the sides of the components. The brackets include arms that extend forwardly towards the front of the slot. After the brackets are attached, the component can be slid into the slot from the front with the sleeves sliding over and engaging the brackets. In this manner, the component can be slid into a slot on the rack with the brackets sliding into the sleeves, thereby providing support for the component along a substantial portion of the depth of the component without the need to bolt or otherwise fixedly attach the component to the bracket after the component is in the rack. Accordingly, a component can be installed in a rack without the need for any access except from the front of the rack.
Abstract translation: 本发明涉及一种用于将部件安装到机架上的系统,该系统包括支架,该支架可以在组件插入到槽中之前通过机架前部的开口安装到机架的后部,并且沿组件的侧面延伸的配合套筒 。 支架包括向前延伸到槽的前部的臂。 在安装支架后,组件可以从前面滑入槽中,袖子滑动并与支架接合。 以这种方式,组件可以滑动到齿条上的狭槽中,其中支架滑入套筒中,从而沿着部件的深度的大部分提供对部件的支撑,而不需要螺栓或以其他方式固定地附接部件 在组件在机架中之后到支架。 因此,组件可以安装在机架中,而不需要除了机架前部之外的任何访问。
