Abstract: A device, method, and a system for identifying a connection cable from a communication device or facilities. The device comprises a connector for attaching to an end of a connection cable, said device bearing connection cable-identification means, such as alpha-numeric markings. In the embodiments described herein, the device comprises a shape for securely but releasably attaching to the connection cable end while the system comprises communication facilities that employ such devices. The device, method, and system described herein may have particular application for a connection cable having an end that is not connected with a communication device.
Abstract: An aircraft theft protection apparatus has two mating parts that encapsulates an electrical power connecter when the electrical power connector is removed from the aircraft's electrical power source. When the electrical power connector is removed the electrical power to the aircraft is interrupted preventing the aircraft from starting its engines. When the two mating parts are fitted together a unique space is provided which allows the electrical power connector to fit closely therein, which is a first theft prevention apparatus. When the electrical power connector is encapsulated within the inventive locking apparatus, a pin-like lock having a non-duplicating key locks the two mating parts together which again prevents the electrical power connector to be reconnected to the aircraft's electrical power source.
