摘要： Couplers for a cable trough system including a spacing defined by first and second guiding surfaces, the spacing being sized to receive the terminal end of a trough member into the spacing. One or more springs are carried on the couplers and may be at least partially disposed within the spacing between the first and the second guiding surfaces. The springs urge the terminal end of the trough member against the coupler upon insertion of the terminal end into the spacing. One or more locking elements are coupled adjacent to the springs to move between a locking position and a released position. The locking elements may slide longitudinally or move perpendicularly to the couplers. A first trough member may be released from the couplers independent from a second trough member coupled to the couplers. Methods for use of the couplers are also provided.

A spring may be coupled to the body for securing the terminal end of the trough member to the coupler, the spring including first and second spring arms extending generally in opposition to one another in a plane generally parallel to the longitudinal direction. The spring may be received in a slot formed by the trough member. Also included may be a spring release mechanism coupled to the body, the spring release mechanism sliding in the longitudinal direction between a locked position, such that the first and second spring arms engage the terminal end of the trough, and an unlocked position, such that the first and second fingers release the first and second arms of the spring.

摘要： A telecommunications optical fiber distribution system is disclosed. The system comprises a support structure with an upper end, a lower end, a front side, a rear side, and a longitudinal axis. An input cable carrying an input signal and an output cable carrying an output signal is received into the system through the lower end. A plurality of signal splitters located at the upper end of the support structure split the input signal into a plurality of secondary signals. The system includes a plurality of adapters arranged radially about the longitudinal axis along the front side of the support structure. The adapters connect the secondary signals to the output signal. A cable management structure having portions located both along the front side between the plurality of adapters and the splitters and adjacent the back side manage and direct cables going from the input opening to the splitters and from the splitters to the adapters.

摘要： A panel antenna having an enclosure, an internal cover, one or more micro radios and RF modules, and a radome is provided. The enclosure may include a rectangular rear panel, side walls with an interior surface to mount micro radios and an external surface to receive heat sinks, and a hinged front cover providing an internal cover. The internal cover may also have a plurality of RF radiating modules fastened thereto. The internal cover may also provide environmental sealing and electromagnetic shielding. The plurality of micro radios are located inside the cavity of the enclosure, and each micro radio is coupled to an RF radiating module. The micro radios may be mounted inside the enclosure on the side walls. The radome encloses the RF radiating modules. The radome may be mounted to the internal seal. Additionally, the panel antenna may further include a heat sink mounted on an exterior side of the rear panel. The heat sink on the rear panel may dissipate heat from additional active electronics, such as a communications hub or calibration radio. The micro radios and active electronics may be mounted such that the heat sinks dissipate heat generated by the micro radios.

摘要： A cellular communication antenna has a base with a length that exceeds its width and an inside surface with internal mounts for a plurality of electrical components that generate heat when in operation. A top encapsulates the electrical components and incorporates a radome. A plurality of fins are mounted on the outside surface of the base. They may be non-parallel with the length of the base. They may all be substantially the same length. They are further constructed and arranged to be in thermal communication with the electrical components such that heat generated by the electrical components is dissipated by the fins. Each fin may be in thermally conductive communication with more than one electrical component.
