  • Patent number: 9357859
    Abstract: A bracket for supporting and displaying a planar object comprises an elongated body member including a planar web and a front wall and a rear wall extending from the longitudinal edges of the web. An end wall extends transversely with respect to and engages the distal ends of the web, the front wall and the rear wall such that the web and the front and rear walls and the end wall define a longitudinal channel open at the proximal end and closed at the distal end for supporting the objects. A pair of arms extend rearwardly from the body member. At least one of the arms is resiliently deflectable for engagement and retention of the lugs in an aperture of a mounting substrate. During connection, lugs on the arms are adapted to engage the portion of the mounting substrate defining the aperture for moving the arms inwardly so that the lugs pass through the aperture for permitting the arms to move outwardly and the lugs to engage the mounting substrate.

  • Patent number: 6738474
    Abstract: POTS splitter devices are provided which are externally mounted with respect to digital subscriber loop access multiplexers and remote terminal and central office equipment racks. A cable having in-line sockets for receiving a combination POTS splitter and surge protection device provides POTS-only signals from a customer's premises to channel banks. The cable is connected to a protection panel configured so as not to consume equipment rack space. A multiport enclosure is provided with a multiport POTS splitter and surge plugs to transmit POTS signals from plural telephone lines to line termination equipment, and at least xDSL signals to a DSLAM via a cable. A multiport POTS splitter enclosure is also provided with connectors for externally mounted surge plugs. A protection panel is provided with integrated POTS splitters, xDSL filters and surge plugs to support plural telephone lines.
