Abstract: An adjustable patch panel that may allow access to its back by movement of the panel's arms. An exemplary patch panel includes two panels releasably and flexibly connected to each other collinearly to fit a rack of a first size. One and/or both panels may have an opening for one or more cabling connectors. A mounting means on each panel may be flexibly connected to its panel. The flexible connection of each mounting means to its panel allows the panel to be selectively pivoted about a vertical axis of the mounting means and allows adjustment of the flexibly connected panels into a non-collinear position to fit a rack of another size. The flexible connection between the panels and the flexible connection of each mounting means to its panel allows use of the patch panel with different size racks, and allows separation of the panels for back access to the panels.

Abstract: Combination apparatus for connecting one or more incoming telephone company lines to one or more telephone subscriber premises lines and for connecting incoming coaxial cable signals such as incoming cable television signals to a receiver of such signals such as a television set, and a coaxial cable module which may be embodied as a cable television module for being mounted to telephone network interface apparatus and for connecting incoming cable television signals to a television set.

Abstract: Cable television module and combination cable television module and telephone network interface apparatus including a pair of coaxial cable connectors at least one of which disposed angularly with respect to each other to facilitate connection with coaxial cables entering the telephone network interface apparatus and connected to one or more television sets of a telephone subscriber whose subscriber line is connected to an incoming telephone line through the telephone network interface apparatus.

Abstract: Coaxial cable connector for interconnecting coaxial cable signals to a receiver and which provides a coaxial cable demarcation point for permitting a reasonable determination of whether the failure of the receiver to function is due to the failure of the receiver to receive the signals or is due to the failure of the receiver itself to function. The connector may also include telephone interconnecting means for interconnecting at least one incoming telephone line to at least one telephone customer line and for providing a telephone demarcation point therebetween to permit the a reasonable determination of whether a fault exists on the telephone subscriber's line or the incoming telephone company line.

Abstract: An improved electrical filter connector comprises a capacitor sub-assembly including an insulative substrate, a plurality of capacitors soldered thereto and a ground spring. The ground spring is soldered to the ground terminations of the capacitors, the ground spring having a resilient portion for electrical engagement with conductive ground traces on a system circuit board. First terminations of the capacitors are electrically individually connected to respective contacts of the electrical connector. Second capacitor terminations are electrically connected to the ground strip. The capacitors are preferably of the discrete, monolithic chip type, having a dielectric body spaced between the electrical terminations thereof. A quantity of curable dielectric material is disposed on the dielectric bodies between each of the capacitor terminations to provide an enhanced dielectric medium to increase the capability of the connectors to withstand higher voltages during power surges.

Abstract: An improved method of making an electrical filter connector includes the steps of providing a substrate with a plurality of metallized openings therethrough for electrical individual attachment to electrical contacts of the connector. The substrate is further provided with a metallized strip on a surface thereof spaced from the metallized openings. A plurality of capacitors are attached to the substrate. First conductive capacitor terminations are individually electrically attached to respective portions of the metallized openings and second conductive capacitor terminations are electrically attached in common to the metallized strip. A curable dielectric material is applied onto the dielectric body of each capacitor between each of the conductive terminations thereof. Each of the electrical contacts of the connector is electrically attached to a respective one of the metallized openings of the substrate.

Abstract: A semiconductive chip carrier connector for mounting to a printed circuit board. The connector includes a pair of oppositely facing levers, hingedly attached to opposite sides of the connector body. The first lever engages the chip carrier and urges it into engagement with contacts supported by the connector body. The second lever engages the first lever and urges the first lever into contact with the chip carrier.
