Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods of manufacture and implementations of hybrid separators for data cables having conductive and non-conductive or metallic and non-metallic portions, and data cables including such hybrid separators. A hybrid separator comprising one or more conductive portions and one or more non-conductive portions may be positioned within a data cable between adjacent pairs of twisted insulated and shielded or unshielded conductors so as to provide physical and electrical separation of the conductors. The position and extent (laterally and longitudinally) of each conductive portion and each non-conductive portion may be selected for optimum performance of the data cable, including attenuation or rejection of cross talk, reduction of return loss, increase of stability, and control of impedance.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the disclosure can implement intrusion radiation protection (IRP) to prevent malicious IP traffic in a secure network. The IRP system can receive an IP packet, determine that a protocol of the IP packet matches a predetermined policy of a plurality of predetermined policies, classify the IP packet based on the predetermined policy and a size of the IP packet, inspect a payload of the IP packet responsive to the classification to determine features of the IP packet, determine that one of the features of the IP packet is improper based on the classification, and flag the IP packet as suspect based on the determination. The IRP system can log and/or drop the flagged IP packet. The IRP system can additionally replace a payload of the IP packet with a second payload, and transmit the IP packet with the second payload to its destination.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed generally to systems and methods for dynamically selecting a retransmission rate for communication between two devices. The retransmission rate may be selected after a transmission has failed between the devices. In some embodiments, the retransmission rate may be selected based on relative velocity of the devices. In some embodiments, the retransmission rate may be selected based on transmission channel characteristics. The retransmission rate may be selected such that the retransmission will be less than an allowable transmission rate based on a distance between the two devices.

Abstract: A connector body includes an inside surface, an outside surface, an intermediate portion, and a cable receiving end. An annular post is fixedly received within the connector body to form a cavity between the annular post and the inside surface of the connector body. The connector body and the post are configured to receive a portion of a coaxial cable in the cavity between the annular post and the inside surface of the connector body. A compression ring is positioned on the outside surface of the connector body. Movement of the compression ring from the intermediate portion of the connector body toward the cable receiving end of the connector body causes inward compression of the cable receiving end of the connector body to reduce a size of the cavity between the annular post and the inside surface of the connector body.

Abstract: A technique for wireless network monitoring involves scanning channels using clients instead of access points. An example of a method according to the technique may include, for example, receiving from a wireless access point a command to perform a channel scanning function, listening on a channel associated with the channel scanning function, and sending RF data found on the channel to the wireless access point. Another example of a method according to the technique may include, for example, scanning a first channel, switching from the first channel to a second channel, sending data on the second channel to an access point, switching from the second channel to the first channel, and resuming scanning on the first channel. A system according to the technique may include one or more scanning clients, proxy clients, multi-channel clients, or other clients that are capable of scanning channels in lieu of an access point.
