Abstract: An example method described herein may include transmitting, via an optical fiber and an optical circulator coupled to an optical transceiver, an optical signal. The example method may include receiving transmission data indicative of reception or loss of the optical signal via the optical fiber. The example method may include determining, based on at least the transmission data, fiber data indictive of at least a condition of the optical fiber.

Abstract: Signals used to test for upstream signal leaks in a hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) network may be interleaved with client data and strategically timed to be received by a leak detection device with a one-hundred percent probability of intercept. A method includes receiving an indication that a user device is in proximity to a computing device. The method includes determining, based on the indication that the user device is in proximity to the computing device, signal information. The method includes causing, based on the signal information, the user device to output a signal. The method includes determining, based on an indication that the signal was received by the computing device, a location of a network leak.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for analyzing and optimizing an amplifier and/or a system of amplifiers based on a noise profile of the amplifier and/or the system of amplifiers. Changes in output power and noise profile of the amplifier and/or the amplifier system may be measured and analyzed, for example, by changing the input power to the amplifier system. Based on the changes to the noise levels and/or output power, the behavior of the amplifier and/or amplifier system may be remotely characterized and used to optimize the amplifier system.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for remotely reconfiguring the spectrum of a network based on a network profile associated with a service group. The service group may contain a group of modems that transmit and receive information over the spectrum of the network. The reconfigured spectrum may increase the network capacity of the network. The modems may continue to transmit and receive information while the reconfiguring is being implemented using intermediate bonding groups.

Abstract: A method for dynamically controlling an electrical load of a recreational vehicle, including: defining predetermined load-shed levels, each load-shed level corresponding to a reduced electrical power output level supplied to electrically-powered devices; defining a device load-priority for each of the devices; receiving and processing battery data to determine a health of the battery; determining a total current draw on the battery when the recreational vehicle is operating; measuring an electrical output of a vehicle power-generation system; determining a load-shed level based on the determined health of the battery, current draw and electrical output of the power-generation system, the load-shed level corresponding to one of the predetermined load-shed levels; and selectively reducing electrical power supplied from the power-generation system or the battery to at least one of the electrically-powered devices based on the first load-shed level and the load-priority of the at least one electrical device.

Abstract: The present invention is an electrical junction box assembly that may receive a variety of electrical devices such as switches, sockets, dimmers, and such. The junction box assembly includes an outer casing, wherein the wires of incoming and outgoing electrical cables are retained within the outer casing at a set orientation and position. The assembly further comprises an insert that is positionable within the outer casing. The insert contains a plurality of conductive elements arranged as panels. The conductive panels are insulated from one another and have a plurality of ports present on both sides, or that pass through, that allow wires to make contact with a conductive panel. The ports on the side proximal to the wires of the incoming and outgoing electrical cables provide a means to establish an electrical connection between the wiring of these cables with a particular conductive panel.

Abstract: A ceiling fan hanger assembly includes a mount plate and a downrod having an inner and an outer portion. The inner and outer portions of the downrod are slidably engaged and can be fastened together to extend or shorten the length of the downrod.
