Abstract: A method for electronic device virtualization and management includes transmitting a signal to a server from a client. The signal is initiated by a user of a user interface of the client. The user interface of the client presents at least two devices to the user, which the user may interact with. The signal may include a power cycling instruction directed to at least one of the devices. When the server receives a communication back from the at least one device, it may send the information to the client, where the user interface may be updated in response to the communication. The devices may be controlled with other instructions, such as scheduling instructions, firmware update instructions, and configuration backup instructions. If a power device is virtualized, it may be controlled on a port-by-port basis.

Abstract: An network addressable lighting device that receives the input power from a power source (PSE), such as a network Power Over Ethernet (PoE) source, at a physical interface and data assembly PIDA and passes the signal directly to a second power assembly (PA) while the AC coupled high-speed data lines stay exclusively on the PIDA that contains the input and output physical interfaces, such as RJ interfaces. All power rails required to run the PIDA are converted on the PA and can then be sent back to the PIDA via low-cost conventional board stacker connectors. Movement of the high-current is done on the power assembly and not the data assembly where the sensitive communications primarily occur. The implementations thus provide an ideal separation of power and data structures to reduce EMI/EMC issues in a low cost and compact device.

Abstract: A control system for controlling a networked system of multiple individually addressable devices, such as lighting devices, each having a logical address based on a network addressing scheme, each lighting device being connected to a computer network through a cable that transmits electric power for powering one or more lighting elements of the lighting device and hierarchical control data for addressing and controlling the lighting device. Each lighting device includes a controller for receiving the hierarchical control data and controlling a state of the one or more lighting elements in accordance with the control data.

Abstract: An electronics enclosure includes a housing having a body section that has a hollow or open interior for containing electrical devices. The body section is configured for flush mounting in a ceiling, wall or other structure. The enclosure includes a moveable front panel that pivots to flip between a closed position and an open position. An electronic device may be mounted to the back surface of the front panel, to be hidden from view when the panel is closed and to be accessible when the panel is open. The enclosure includes anchoring mechanisms that rotate between first and second positions, to anchor the enclosure in the ceiling, wall or other structure.
