  • Patent number: 11948707
    Abstract: A system for providing cable support may be provided. The system may comprise a conductor core, a filler that may provide integral core support, and armor. The conductor core may comprise at least one conductor. The filler may be applied around at least a portion of the conductor core. The armor may be applied around at least a portion of the filler. The applied armor may be configured to cause the filler to apply a strong enough force on an exterior of the conductor core configured to keep the conductor core from slipping down an interior of the filler due to a gravitational force. In addition, the applied armor may be configured to cause the filler to apply a strong enough force on an interior of the armor configured to keep a combination of the conductor core and the filler from slipping down the interior of the armor due to the gravitational force.

  • Publication number: 20240098493
    Abstract: Techniques for identifying a trusted SSID for a wireless network are disclosed. Prior to establishing a connection with a wireless network, a first network message is received from a first access point (AP) identifying a first service set identifier (SSID) associated with a first wireless network, a second network message is received from a second AP identifying a second SSID associated with a second wireless network, and a visual similarity is determined between a first visual representation of the first SSID and a second visual representation of the second SSID. The second SSID is designated as suspicious based on the determined visual similarity.

  • Patent number: 11917025
    Abstract: Methods are provided in which a computing device obtains telemetry data associated with a network technology used in an enterprise network and an enterprise network profile that includes information about the complexity of the enterprise network. The network technology is deployed at one or more devices of the enterprise network. The methods further include the computing device determining, based on the telemetry data, for each deployment of the network technology, a current stage from a plurality of stages of an adoption lifecycle to which the network technology progressed, determining a time estimate for completing the current stage of the adoption lifecycle, based on the enterprise network profile and an adoption benchmark generated from a plurality of activities performed for progressing along the adoption lifecycle, and evaluating an adoption of the network technology, using the time estimate, to progress the network technology along the lifecycle.

  • Publication number: 20210188975
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a family of nucleic acids, polypeptides and cloning vectors which direct expression of fusion proteins that can mimic aggregated IgG (AIG) and immune complex function with respect to their interactions with Fc?R and which allow for the inclusion and targeting of a second protein domain to cells expressing Fc?R. This was accomplished by expressing multiple linear copies of the hinge and CH2 domains (HCH2) of human IgG1 fused to the framework region of human IgG1. Convenient restriction sites allow for the facile introduction of additional amino-terminal domains. Methods for treating patients using fusion proteins are also disclosed. The HCH2 polymers described here represent a new strategy in the design of recombinant proteins for the therapeutic targeting of Fc?R in autoimmune disorders.

  • Publication number: 20160297016
    Abstract: A structure modification system may include a structure attachment portion secured to a structure, an articulating arm connected to the structure attachment portion, and a mechanical tool connected to the articulating arm. The mechanical tool may be a saw and the structure may be a vertically oriented pole or column. The structure attachment portion may be secured to the structure with one or more straps, which may wrap around the structure. The articulating arm may include first and second arm segments which may pivot with respect to one another. The operation of the system may allow for a horizontal cut of the structure by the saw from any side of the structure.
