Patent number: 8014837Abstract: A chassis and associated telecommunication circuit card are disclosed. The chassis has heat dissipation structures and may accommodate a high density of the circuitry cards. Embodiments may include one surface with one or more ridges for rigidity and ventilation and fin slots for receiving circuit card guide fins. Embodiments may include a surface with knockouts for receiving circuit card guides. Embodiments may also include multiple bracket hole patterns for mounting brackets for different racks or for a single multi-rack bracket having more than one mounting hole pattern. The circuit card includes conductor structures such as multiple board layers with paired and segregated conductors. The circuit card also includes some components positioned to cooperate with the ventilation structures of the chassis and includes some components chosen for low-power consumption or reduced flammability.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2010Date of Patent: September 6, 2011Assignee: ADC Telecommunications, Inc.Inventors: Gregory J. Fritz, Alejandra Anderson, Robin Berg, Derek Sayres, Eric Sit

Patent number: 7778597Abstract: A telecommunications chassis, module, and repeater circuit for use with signals having data rates including STM-1 (155.52 megabits per second) are disclosed. The chassis provides structures for establishing shielding and heat dissipation for the circuitry modules it contains including an outer and an inner Faraday box with an integrated ventilation pattern for circulating air. The module provides its own structures for establishing shielding and heat dissipation including a Faraday box and a ventilation pattern. The repeater circuit provides the ability to bridge a data signal between a monitor jack of one device and a higher signal level input jack of another device through multiple amplification stages and circuit board structures. The telecommunications chassis, module, and repeater circuit can be used in conjunction.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2007Date of Patent: August 17, 2010Assignee: ADC Telecommunications, Inc.Inventors: Eric Sit, Robin Berg, Jr., Brian J. McClellan, Steven Skradde, David J. Streitz, John P. Anderson, Gary L. Steinkogler, Eric Comer

Patent number: 7639510Abstract: A chassis and associated telecommunication circuit card are disclosed. The chassis has heat dissipation and flame containment features while accommodating a high density of the circuitry cards. Embodiments include an inner housing with a double-layer middle floor dividing the chassis into top and bottom chambers. Each layer has partially aligned slots, and an air gap is provided between the two layers. Embodiments also include a double-layer mesh cover with an air gap existing between the two mesh layers. Projections and grooves are provided on the inner surfaces of the inner housing to receive circuit cards having a guide on one edge and a fin on another. The circuit card includes conductor structures such as multiple board layers with paired and segregated conductors. The circuit card also includes some components positioned to cooperate with the ventilation features of the chassis and includes some components chosen for low-power consumption or reduced flammability.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2008Date of Patent: December 29, 2009Assignee: ADC Telecommunications, Inc.Inventors: Gregory J.
