Publication number: 20230309258Abstract: A dust-proof telecommunication system is disclosed. The dust-proof telecommunication system includes a chassis, critical components located within the chassis, and a filter module located within the chassis near at least some of the critical components that need to be cooled. For example, the critical components include a central processing unit (CPU), a system on chip (SoC), a memory module, a PCIe card, and/or a chipset. The filter module has a filter cover that surrounds at least in part the critical components, a first air filter located at an inlet of an airflow, and a second air filter located at an outlet. The critical components located at a protective space within the chassis receive and are cooled by the airflow passing through the air filter.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2022Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: Yi-Chieh CHEN, Yueh-Chang WU, Ching-Yi SHIH, Po-Cheng SHEN

Patent number: 10712795Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling two or more PSUs of a server system. An exemplary method comprises first determining whether the PSUs are switched on to an AC power source. If the PSUs are found not switched on to an AC power source, the method further comprises restarting the AC power source for the PSUs and completing a software-based recovery process. If the PSUs are found to be switched on to an AC power source, the method further comprises determining whether the PSUs meet a predefined criterion. If the PSUs do meet a predefined criterion, the method further comprises disabling a cold-redundancy mode for the PSUs. If the PSUs do not meet a predefined criterion, the method further comprises starting a wake-up process for a first PSU from a cold-redundancy mode.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2018Date of Patent: July 14, 2020Assignee: QUANTA COMPUTER INC.Inventors: Chao-Jung Chen, Yi-Chieh Chen, Yueh-Chang Wu, Ching-Yi Shih
