Abstract: In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a cable management unit having a base section for supporting a plurality of distribution walls. The distribution walls support several ports and can form a contiguous section or several discontinuous segments. A first mounting bracket and a second mounting bracket are integrated with the base section for securing the base to a receiving structure. Some of the distribution walls can be arranged at an angle with relation to each other in order to expand the number of ports that are formed on the base.

Abstract: One embodiment of the invention provides a fully distributed, scaleable and modular rack architecture and management system. One feature of the invention provides device management throughout the rack system with a vertical interface column integrated into the rack cabinet. Within each rack unit (U) of the vertical interface column, the vertical interface column may deliver connectivity to a device housed within the rack cabinet thereby eliminating runs of cable typically necessary for management of such devices. The vertical interface column can be expanded as necessary to provide connectivity to more devices using hot-swappable interface modules. A rack management system allows both local and remote management access to all devices mounted in the rack cabinet and coupled to the vertical interface column. The rack management system may also access to devices mounted in other rack cabinets.

Abstract: A self-identifying keyboard is provided with customization logic which allows the keyboard processor to assign a keyboard identification (ID) value. The keyboard processor is interconnected to a data channel interface adapted to communicate with a host system. The host system can send a query for the ID value, via the data interface, and the keyboard processor can retrieve the ID value from a non-volatile memory, and transmit it back to the host system via the data channel interface. This customization approach simplifies system integration, by letting the host system automatically learn the keyboard type. The ID value may indicate a particular language of the keyboard. At the time of final system assembly, the same host system, or another suitably programmed manufacturing system can be used to assign the keyboard ID, when it is known what language or other unique functionality is used in the end-user product.

Abstract: An improved control and monitoring system for managing more than one computer system using a witch with a single connector for keyboard, video and mouse signals for each computer being managed. A notebook style display, keyboard, and pointing device attached to the switch provide a human interface. Each computer is attached to the switch using a cable having a single connector at the attachment point to the switch and separate connectors for keyboard, video, and pointing device signals at the attachment point to each computer, thus allowing a greater density of connections to computers without modifying the computers being controlled and monitored. Even greater densities may be realized by designating one switch as a master and attaching additional switches to the master.

Abstract: A method for providing a provisioning key for connecting a computer to a computer network is disclosed. Initially, an order for an electronic device, such as a computer or a personal digital assistant, is placed by an user. The electronic device includes a network communication device capable of providing communication between the electronic device and a computer network. During the purchasing process, the user is prompted to answer a few questions. According to the answers given by the user, corresponding provisioning information for the network communication device within the electronic device is then generated. The provisioning information is stored in a portable medium that can be readily recognized by the electronic device. The portable medium is then delivered to the user.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for displaying image and facsimile data on a host-based application display. A host computer generates control and download command data for displaying the image or facsimile data. The image and facsimile data is processed by a non-programmable-terminal (NPT) or a programmable work station (PWS) for presentation of a display screen. When a user requests another function, the NPT or PWS stores image information and sends image information to the host computer. The save image information includes cache image counter data, scaling and viewed image screen location data that is used to restore the displayed image and facsimile data when the user returns to the previous function. Both the user and host application can specify a foreground color and a background color for the image and facsimile data display.

Abstract: A process and an apparatus for electrochemical decomposition of sodium azide in aqueous alkaline solutions form sodium hydroxide, ammonia, nitrogen, and oxygen. The apparatus contains five major parts, which are (1) an electrolyzer which contains one or more cell units, (2) a rectifier which supplies D.C. electrical current to the electrolyzer, (3) a tank which holds the electrolyte (containing sodium hydroxide and sodium azide) needed to be processed in the electrolyzer, (4) a vacuum which can remove off gases generated by electrolysis in the electrolyzer, and (5) a recovery system which can further separate off gases. It is optional to add a pump in between the tank and the electrolyzer to be used for filling, mechanical agitation, or recycle.
