Abstract: A combination patch panel and distribution amplifier within a single housing composed of a plurality of card modules which may have a data format interface with a configurable input/output module known as small footprint plugables for the transmission and distribution of signals, data, and the like, in either serial digital mode, internet protocol mode or other signals, each card module configurable to provide for any front panel jack functioning as a repeater output from external source, input distribution amplifier, output distribution amplifier, or destination jack.

Abstract: A self-normalling jack with a magnetically controlled normal circuit, switch or relay comprising a pair of receptacles having a sensing means for sensing the insertion of a plug, the sensing means in communication with an electronic normalling circuit, switch or relay, the electronic normalling circuit, switch or relay in communication with a paired receptacle such that the electronic normalling circuit, switch or relay is located between the source terminal and the source jack and between the destination jack and the destination terminal. The sensing means being the interruption or non-interruption of the magnetic field by the presence or absence of a patch cord in the jack respectively.

Abstract: A transmission assembly for remote or fixed applications which allow the transmission of high definition video via multiple 75 ohm high definition video coaxial signals in one cable assembly, the cable assembly having 75 ohm coaxial connectors for interconnect with a similar cable assembly, the 75 ohm coaxial connectors being housed in G-block style housings at each end of the cable assembly, the G-block style housing having locking latches secured thereto to insure the connection and prevent inadvertent or unintended disconnect.

Abstract: A self-normalling jack with an electronically controlled normal circuit or relay comprising a pair of receptacles having a sensing means for sensing the insertion of a plug, the sensing means in communication with an electronic normalling switch or relay, the electronic normalling switch or relay in communication with a paired receptacle such that the electronic normalling switch or relay is located between the source terminal and the upper jack and between the lower jack and the destination terminal. The electronically controlled normalling circuit or relay also connects the source to the destination when no patch cord is inserted into either the upper or lower jack receptacle. When the patch cord is inserted into the upper jack, the source signal is connected to the patch plug. When the patch cord is inserted into the lower jack, the destination signal is connected to the patch plug. Inserting a cord into either jack receptacle disconnects the source from the destination.
