Abstract: A cable tray system including two or more cable tray sections comprising a first side rail and a second side rail arranged substantially parallel to one another and a floor extending between. The tray system also includes one or more flex-wires for joining the cable tray sections, where the flex-wires can be U- or loop-shaped. Upon exerting tension on the flex-wires, the first and second cable tray sections can move away from one another from a first position to a second position. In addition, the tray system includes a fastening device that removably locks the tray system into the second position.

The adapter system includes an elongated wire that features a plurality of adapters mounted/secured with respect thereto. The wire is at least partially stored within a housing and extends therefrom. The adapters are mounted/secured with respect to a portion of the wire that extends from the housing. The housing includes a retraction mechanism that facilitates retraction of the wire into the housing for convenient storage thereof. The present disclosure further provides structures that are configured and dimensioned to receive the disclosed housing, e.g.

Abstract: An adapter system is provided that facilitates convenient access to one or more adapters, e.g., DVI-D to HDMI adapter(s), Micro-HDMI to HDMI adapter(s), Mini-HDMI to HDMI adapter(s), Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter(s), DisplayPort to HDMI adapter(s), VGA to HDMI adapter(s), MHL to HDMI adapter(s), and/or USB to HDMI adapter(s). The adapter system includes an elongated wire that features a plurality of adapters connected/secured with respect thereto. The wire defines an attachment mechanism at a first end thereof. The attachment mechanism allows the wire to be movably secured with respect to a cable, e.g., an HDMI cable. In exemplary embodiments, movement of the wire relative to the cable is limited by stop(s) positioned on or defined by the cable. In use, the disclosed adapter system permits a user to readily access and individually utilize each of the adapter(s) connected/secured with respect to the wire on an as-needed basis.

Abstract: In various implementations, a raceway may be provided that is capable of providing power and/or data connectivity to items (e.g., devices, articles of furniture, etc.) coupled to the raceway. The raceway may be low profile. The raceway may be disposed on floor and/or under floor. The raceway may include an integrated power housing. The raceway may include segments that are selected, as desired for an application configuration, and that are coupleable to each other or other components of the raceway (e.g., nodes, joints, etc.). The housing of component(s) of the raceway may include a base and wall(s) with at least curved section and at least one straight section.

Abstract: A power distribution system for providing power, data and/or signals including a chassis with an open channel formed on one side. At least one line buss is mounted on the inside of at least one sidewall and configured to be connected to a power source for providing AC power. A plurality of power modules are configured to removably mount to the chassis and receive power/data/signals from the chassis. Each module includes a housing with walls. A front wall includes openings with one outlet port accessible through the openings. Electrical circuitry in the housing coverts or transmits power, data or communication signals to the outlet port. One or more line connections protrude out from at least one of the walls and are located so as to come into contact with one of the associated busses in the chassis when the module is attached to the chassis.

Abstract: In various implementations, a raceway may include a housing with walls and arms extending from the housing. A cavity may be disposed in the housing and cables may reside in the cavity, during use. The cables may provide connectivity to receptacles of the raceway and thus a variety of devices. A cover may be utilized with the housing to facilitate access to the cables in the cavity of the housing. In some implementations, the cover may be retained by flexible arms of the housing. The raceway may be configured to receive wire clips to retain cables and/or conduit disposed in a cavity of the raceway.
