摘要:
Described is a system and method of protection switching in an Ethernet network. First and second point-to-point Ethernet links are established to data equipment. Identical streams of Ethernet traffic are received at a first Ethernet port and at a second Ethernet port. The stream of Ethernet traffic being received at the first Ethernet port is transmitted to the data equipment over the first point-to-point Ethernet link, while the second Ethernet port is prevented from transmitting the stream of Ethernet traffic received at the second Ethernet port. During a protection switch, transmission of Ethernet traffic ceases over the first point-to-point Ethernet link, and commences over the second point-to-point Ethernet link, the second Ethernet port transmitting the stream of Ethernet traffic being received at the second Ethernet port to the data equipment.
摘要:
A system and method for configuring a network element to support protection switching in an optical network are described. The network element can operate according to the SONET, SDH, or both optical transport standards. Each tributary card of the network element has a baseline set of triggering parameters for supporting each protection scheme of both optical transport standards. A baseline parameter set for a given protection scheme has those triggering parameters that are common to SDH and SONET optical transport standards. One or more additional triggering parameters may be needed by a tributary card to complete the implementation of a particular protection scheme. These additional triggering parameters can be sent to the tributary cards, as needed, to supplement the baseline parameter sets.
摘要:
A system identification module for storing system specific information is described. The system includes a housing, a module connector and a persistent memory for storing system specific data associated with a communications system having a backplane. The housing and the module connector define an enclosure surrounding the persistent memory. The module connector can be electrically coupled to and removed from the backplane connector. The persistent memory can be a programmable read-only memory device. System specific information such as the system serial number, the date of manufacture, the system vintage and the common language equipment identifier (CLEI) code can be remotely accessed using the system identification module.
摘要:
A multi-service network element is configurable for use in various types of communications networks. The network element has a service interface card, a service interface electrical connector for receiving the service interface card, an I/O electrical connector for receiving an I/O module, and a backplane. The backplane has a first side, an opposite side, a first means for electrically connecting the service interface electrical connector to the first side, and a second means for electrically connecting the I/O electrical connector to either side of the backplane. The backplane is partitioned into columns and rows of electrical connectors. Each column corresponds to a card slot for receiving a circuit pack and each row corresponds to a section of the backplane having traces for carrying a particular type of electrical signals between circuit packs.

Provided is a display device that includes an optical sensor having a high sensitivity in which a potential difference of an accumulation node due to an illuminance difference on a light receiving surface after boosting is set greater than a potential difference of the same at an end of an integration period. The display device includes an optical sensor in a pixel region. The optical sensor includes a diode D1; a reset signal line RST for supplying a reset signal; a readout signal line RWS for supplying a readout signal; an accumulation node having a potential (VINT) that varies with an amount of light received by the diode D1 during a period from supply of the reset signal to supply of the readout signal; an amplifying element C1 for amplifying VINT according to the readout signal; and a sensor switching element M2 for reading out the amplified potential and outputting the same to an output line. A potential of a light shielding film LS provided on a back side of the diode is fixed to a constant potential VLS satisfying the following formula: VLS≧VRST.H.

Provided are an optical sensor having a wider dynamic range with reduced temperature dependence, and a display apparatus in which these optical sensors are used. An optical sensor includes an accumulation node (INT); a reset signal line (RST); a readout signal line (RWS); a photodiode (D1) (photodetecting element); a photodiode (D2) (reference element) that has a light-shielding layer; a thin-film transistor (M1) (first switching element) that outputs a potential of the accumulation node (INT) in response to the readout signal during a sensing period; and a thin-film transistor (M2) (second switching element) that is provided between the accumulation node (INT) and the photodiode (D2), and that electrically separates the accumulation node (INT) from the photodiode (D2) when the potential of the accumulation node (INT) upon supply of the readout signal is higher than a potential on a side of the photodiode (D2) opposite to the accumulation node (INT).

A buffer circuit drives a capacitive load based on a voltage Vin. In a setup period, switches are in an ON state, and in a drive period, a switch is in an ON state. A voltage comparison unit compares the voltage Vin in the setup period and a voltage Vout in a drive period to output a comparison result voltage. A push-pull output unit includes a TFT for charge and a TFT for discharge. A drive control unit controls the TFTs to be in an OFF state in the setup period, and in the drive period, selectively controls the TFTs to be in an ON state in accordance with the comparison result voltage.

A multilayer, heat-shrinkable film generally includes at least one bulk layer and a microlayer section comprising at least 10 microlayers, each of which has a thickness ranging from about 0.001 to 0.015 mil. The ratio of the thickness of any of the microlayers to the thickness of the bulk layer is at least about 1:2. The film has a total free shrink (ASTM D2732-03) of at least about 10% at 200° F.
