Abstract: A modular mounting for a computer motherboard. An outer cabinet is designed to provide a protective enclosure for electrical components, and designed to permit throughhole drilling to facilitate mounting on a wall while avoiding disturbance of contents to be mounted within the outer cabinet. A subpanel plate is designed to detachably and securely attach a computer motherboard and cage assembly, and designed to removably mount the motherboard and cage assembly within the outer cabinet as a modular component, mounting of the motherboard and cage assembly being independent of power supply and nonvolatile storage. An inner cage is designed to protectably mount and enclose a computer motherboard and heat sink, and mount to the subpanel plate. A multipole switch may have a set of contacts for each conductor of a network cable entering the outer cabinet, one throw of the switch connecting all conductors of the cable, another throw of the switch disconnecting all contacts of the cable.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring one or more Mobility Management Entities (MMEs) with a plurality of scalable network probe devices arranged in a cluster format. A ciphered packet is received from one or more MMEs at a packet switching device. The packet switching device in turn sends all the ciphered packets to each of the plurality of clustered probes. Each of the network probes then in turn deciphers the packets received from the MME and extracts metadata from the deciphered packet to identify subscriber session information contained in the received packet. Each of the network probes then selectively retains deciphered packet information relating to a subscriber session and/or other prescribed criteria designated for that particular network probe and discards the remaining deciphered packet or portions of the packet so as to balance the load amongst the plurality of probes based upon prescribed load balancing criteria.
