  • Track for routing an optical fiber
    Patent number: 10180554
    Abstract: A track system for routing an optical fiber includes a track for selectively retaining the optical fiber therein, a cover piece which is mounted to the track, and a corner piece which is mounted to the track. The track is formed as an elongated member and includes a pair of legs that are spaced apart from each other to define a slot and an internal channel into which the optical fiber is received. The cover piece is mountable to the track to help retain the optical fiber in the track.

  • Grounding module having external coaxial cable ground lug
    Patent number: 10090609
    Abstract: A grounding module for telecommunication systems is mountable to an AC wall outlet and includes two cable connectors to which signal carrying cables are attached. The grounding module includes a housing having a main ground contact to provide a ground to an external electronic device connected thereto. An external grounding lug is mounted on one of the cable connectors to provide a separate ground connection to the metallic sleeves of the cable connectors. At least one of a surge protection circuit and ground protection circuit is provided and which is in electrical communication with the main ground contact. The grounding lug and metallic sleeves of the cable connectors are selectively electrically isolatable from the main ground contact.
