    Abstract: The present technology provides a system and method for smartly resetting a hang device of a server system based upon a Wake-on-Lan (WoL) message and status of the hang device. The system comprises a management device, a switch, a physical layer (PHY) coupled to a network, a network interface (NIC), a monitoring device and a delay circuit. The PHY is coupled to the network to receive network packets that includes a WoL message. The monitoring device is configured to receive status information from the management device and the WoL message, and reset the management device based upon received information.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for managing components within a server using radiofrequency communications. The methods and apparatuses disclosed employ a server having a chassis with a plurality of slots. Each slot of the plurality of slots is configured to connect a removable electronic component to the chassis. The server also includes a controller configured to manage the removable electronic components connected to the chassis. The server also includes at least one RFID reader communicatively connected to the controller. The at least one RFID reader is configured to interrogate one or more RFID tags of the removable electronic components connected to the chassis and provide information from the one or more RFID tags to the controller.

    Abstract: A computing device is provided. The computing device includes a first and second housing. The first housing includes a first and second set of electrical connection ports. The first set of electrical connection ports is positioned at a first location and in a first orientation. The second set of electrical connection ports is positioned at a second location and in a second orientation, which is different from the first set of electrical connection ports. The second housing is fixed within the computing device. The first housing is slidable, with respect to the second housing, within the computing device to enable access to the second set of electrical connection ports.
