Abstract: A parking enforcement device can be secured to a surface adjacent to the area designated as NO PARKING. The enforcement device can include an elongated hollow body, a window provided to the tubular body, a battery, an internal frame assembly disposed inside of the elongated hollow body, and a camera disposed inside of the elongated hollow body. The internal frame assembly defines a cavity in which the battery is located. A camera support pole extends vertically upwards from the internal frame assembly. The camera is secured to the camera support pole and located vertically along the camera support pole such that the camera views outward through the window. A solar panel can be provided atop the parking enforcement device to recharge the battery.

Abstract: At least one brackets is attached to each of opposing sides of a chassis holding telecommunications equipment, providing enhanced structural support thereto. The bracket preferably comprises a series of cutouts that allow access to a plurality of mounting holes used to secure the bracket to the equipment chassis. The cutouts advantageously allow cables to be extracted from the bracket and dressed to the front of the equipment for attachment to the chassis or individual plug-in modules as required. The bracket is preferably open at the top and bottom portions thereof to allow cables to pass therethrough.

Abstract: A cable holding matrix and method for managing large numbers of telecommunications cables within a confined space. The cable holding matrix comprises a support member and two pluralities of aligned posts protruding from a surface of the support member and intersecting each other at an acute angle. The posts are spaced such that cables may be guided between two neighboring posts in the second plurality, bent around one of those neighboring posts, and positioned between two neighboring posts in the first plurality.

Abstract: A flexible backplane assembly is provided wherein removable backplane modules are mounted in a platform in a manner such that the backplane modules may be removed and replaced to accommodate different types of circuit modules. Coacting guides are provided on the platform and the backplane modules to define a travel path for module insertion and removal which prevents contact with adjacent circuit and backplane modules and maneuvers around platform structural members. Connectors at the rear of each backplane module for mating withy circuit module connectors may be electrically connected to I/O boards at the front of the module to permit wiring of the backplane modules from the front of the platform.
