  • Patent number: 11915095
    Abstract: A cable management system includes multiple cables, each having a unique identifier associated therewith and each including first and second barcodes including the unique identifier, the first barcode located proximate a first end of the cable, the second barcode located proximate a second end of the cable. The system also includes a barcode scanner to scan barcodes of the cables, the barcode scanner including a clip to receive one of the cables. The system also includes a mobile computing device having a processor, data storage medium, communication unit, and user interface including a display. The mobile computing device is configured to receive via the user interface first end location information for a first cable, receive from the barcode scanner the first barcode of the first cable, and save and display the first end location information in association with the unique identifier of the first cable included in the first barcode.

  • Publication number: 20230333952
    Abstract: A system for management of telecommunication or data center infrastructure including multiple components may include a scanner to scan a unique identifier attached to a component of the infrastructure, and a mobile device which may include a processor, a data storage medium storing machine readable instructions, a communication unit, and a user interface including a display. The mobile computing device may execute the machine readable instructions to (i) receive, from the scanner, a component identifier associated with the component obtained via a scan of the unique identifier attached to the component, (ii) associate the component identifier with a location of the component in the infrastructure, (iii) display, on the user interface, the component identifier associated with the location of the component, and (iv) export, via the communication unit, the location of the component to a management solution for use in management of the component in the infrastructure.

  • Publication number: 20230269900
    Abstract: A cabinet defined by a frame with front vertical posts, back vertical posts, and front to back beams extending from the front vertical posts to the back vertical posts. Equipment rails are secured to the frame at the front and the back of the cabinet. The equipment rails include vertically orientated holes extending there through. The vertically orientated hole in one of the front equipment rails is aligned with the vertically orientated hole in one of the back equipment rails to create a pathway between the vertically orientated holes. An enclosure is installed in the pathway between the aligned vertically orientated holes thereby connecting the front equipment rail to the back equipment rail.

  • Publication number: 20230179302
    Abstract: An apparatus having input and output ports using a plurality of optical connector adapters, wherein the fiber connections can follow a specific mesh pattern has a plurality of fibers inside the apparatus. The fibers pass through at least one mandrel and are designed to produce a leakage in the transmitted light from each fiber of least ?30 dBm, wherein the fiber buffer of fibers around the mandrel are partially stripped in at least one section. The apparatus also has an imaging system consisting of at least a lens, camera sensor and an optical filter are placed in proximity to the fiber striped section wherein the optical filter has spectral properties tuned or partially tuned to the operational wavelength of the network and the optical filter is placed in the light path before the camera sensor.

  • Patent number: 9857129
    Abstract: This Regulated Bolt Carrier is a lightweight carrier having a built-in gas regulating gate. As a drop-in assembly it enables tuning of the gas system used in firearms of the AR-15 class. Adjustments of a continuously variable nature may be made quickly through the port door without requiring disassembly of the firearm. A gas “regulator gate” located under the gas key below a gas port inside the body of the bolt carrier itself is cut as a half-moon. Rotating the regulator gate on its axis changes the position of the half-moon cutout, blocking the entry of gas into the system. The regulator gate can be set anywhere from fully open to fully closed and is held in position by a small lock screw. For maintenance, the gas regulator gate can be pushed out of its bore via an access hole on the opposite side of the bolt carrier.

  • Publication number: 20030011930
    Abstract: A write element includes a return pole that is separated from a writer pole by a writer gap layer. The writer pole has a width and a magnetically active region adjoining a first magnetically dead side wall. The magnetically active region defines a track width of the write element, which is less than a width of the writer pole.
