Abstract: A method is provided for producing a molded article from a non-thermoplastic material. The method includes: supplying the non-thermoplastic elastomer material to a processing unit; processing the non-thermoplastic elastomer material to generate a material flow of the non-thermoplastic elastomer material; conveying the non-thermoplastic elastomer material into an accumulator unit to generate a nominal pressure of the non-thermoplastic elastomer material in the accumulator unit; conveying the non-thermoplastic elastomer material to a molding unit to selectively output at least one layer of the molded article to be formed; and cross-linking the at least one layer of the molded article or of the entire molded article by means of a cross-linking unit. The non-thermoplastic elastomer material is highly viscous, and has a viscosity in the range of 100 to 1,000,000 Pa·s.

Abstract: A system and method of providing communications over twisted pair conductors connected to a plurality of communication devices located in a plurality of units of a multi-unit structure is provided. In one embodiment, the system comprises an upstream device having a first modem and a first non-conductive coupler communicatively coupled to the first modem and configured to couple data signals to and from the plurality of twisted pair conductors. The system also includes a plurality of communication devices disposed in a plurality of the units, with each having a second modem having first port and a second port, a second non-conductive coupler communicatively coupled to the first port of the second modem and configured to couple data signals to and from a twisted pair conductor. The second port of the second modem is configured to be coupled to one or more of the plurality of user devices.
