Abstract: Electronics rack door assemblies are provided to hingedly mount an air inlet or an air outlet side of an electronics rack, and be rotatable between closed and open positions. The door assembly includes a door frame, to hingedly mount to the electronics rack, with an opening to facilitate a flow of air through the electronics rack. The door assembly further includes an acoustical panel pivotably coupled to the door frame and aligned, at least in part, over the opening in the door frame. With the door frame hingedly mounted to the electronics rack at the air inlet or outlet side, the acoustical panel automatically pivots from an operation position relative to the door frame with the door frame in the closed position, to an at least partially collapsed position relative to the door frame with the door frame in the open position.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for inducing multiaxial vibrations to simulate an environment for transporting a stack of products is provided. A lower platform is provided for inducing uniaxial vibrations. A link is connected to the lower platform by a lower end of the link. The upper end of the link has a universal joint, through which the link is connected to an upper platform. The upper platform has a top surface, on which the stack of products can be placed. In operations, the uniaxial vibrations of the lower platform are transferred to the upper platform through the link and the universal joint, to induce pivotal movement of the upper platform with respect to the shaft of the link. As a result, multiaxial vibrations can be induced to the stack of products placed on the top surface of the upper platform.

Abstract: Top-mount cable management structures are provided to mount to an upper surface of an electronics rack, over a cable pass-through in the upper surface. The cable management structure includes a base structure to mount to the upper surface of the rack, and reside over the cable pass-through. The base structure includes a sidewall with at least one cable opening to allow one or more cables which pass-through the cable pass-through to also pass-through the sidewall of the base structure. A cover structure is provided mounted to the base structure. The base and cover structures together define a substantially enclosed housing disposed over the cable pass-through when the cable management structure is operatively positioned over the upper surface of the electronics rack and the one or more cables pass-through the at least one cable opening in the sidewall of the base structure.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided which includes a changeable cover assembly sized to cover, at least in part, an air outlet side of an electronics rack. The cover assembly, when positioned at the air outlet side of the rack, redirects and vents airflow egressing from the air outlet side. The cover assembly includes a frame and at least one vent cover. The frame has at least one opening through which air egressing from the electronics rack passes, and the vent cover(s) is coupled to the frame and overlies, at least in part, the opening(s) in the frame to facilitate redirecting and venting the air passing through the frame. The at least one vent cover is changeable to change a direction of the vented air. For instance, the vent cover(s) may be reversible, or otherwise adjustable or changeable, to change the direction of vented air egressing from the cover assembly.

Abstract: A security device for a universal emergency power-off (UEPO) switch of a computer system enclosure involves a plate body having a first and second portion, the first portion has a length and width sufficient to allow it to be rigidly constrained, the second portion has: a hand grip near an end of the second portion including surface texturing sufficient to capture and retain epithelial cells from a person who grips the hand grip to gain access to the UEPO switch. The plate body also has a deformation region such that, when the first portion is rigidly constrained, application of a force, directed within a range from 0° to about 45° from a right angle to the surface, will cause plastic deformation of the plate body within the deformation region.
