Abstract: A hydraulic pressure control system having a variable displacement pump fluidly connected to a hydraulic motor. The pump provides flow to a first circuit upon demand. Remaining flow is provided to a second circuit. The second circuit includes a pilot controlled pressure reducing valve that adjusts the pumps outlet pressure based upon a sensed loads taken from a conduit between the pressure control valve and an active flow regulator valve.

Abstract: An optical coupler comprises a first, second, third, and fourth port. The first port is for communicating optical signals with a processor. The second port receives a first optical signal and transmits the first optical signal to the first port. The third port receives a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the first port. The fourth port receives a third optical signal and transmits the third optical signal to the first port.

Abstract: A housing has second and third bays, where each bay receives equipment therein. The housing also has a plurality of lines traveling therein from a site such as a first bay to the second bay and the third bay. A line routing device is positioned above the second and third bays and routes the lines from the site to the second and third bays. Each line is secured at a common securing point above the second and third bays, and each of the second and third bays has a vertical down-channel at one side thereof. Each line extends from the securing point, through the line routing device, and down one of the down-channels such that the line when positioned to hang in either down-channel hangs substantially the same length within such down-channel.

Abstract: A connectorized inside fiber optic drop that facilitates the deployment of fiber to the home by connecting a fiber optic interface device to an optical network terminal, the inside fiber optic drop including a sheath, transition fittings, pigtails, fiber optic connectors, and a fiber optic strand. The sheath is positioned over a middle section of the fiber optic strand. The transition fittings are attached to the fiber optic sheath proximate to both ends of the drop. The pigtails attach to the transition fittings and enclose the fiber optic strand from the transition fittings to the ends of the fiber optic strand, where the fiber optic connectors are attached to the fiber optic strand and the pigtails. If the drop contains more than one fiber optic strand, then one set of pigtails with connectors is provided for each fiber optic strand.

Abstract: A fiber optic interface device that facilitates the deployment of fiber to the home by connecting a connectorized outside fiber optic drop to a connectorized inside fiber optic drop, the fiber optic interface device including a housing having two ports, termination hardware, routing hardware, and one or more adapters. The housing provides environmental protection and is adapted to be mounted to a customer's house. The two ports receive the outside and inside drops. Positioned above the ports inside the housing, the termination hardware secures the drops to the housing. The routing hardware receives the drops from the ports, routes the drops to the one or more adapters, and stores any extra length in the drops, while maintaining a proper fiber strand bend radius. The one or more adapters connect the outside drop to the inside drop, providing a well-aligned and stable fiber optic connection that does not require splicing.

Abstract: A connectorized outside fiber optic drop that facilitates the deployment of fiber to the home by connecting a local terminal to a fiber optic interface device, the outside fiber optic drop including a sheath, transition fittings, pigtails, fiber optic connectors, and a fiber optic strand.

Abstract: A fiber optic deployment network that delivers uninterrupted fiber optic service from a service provider central office to a subscriber's optical network terminal, and as a component of that deployment network, a fiber optic deployment apparatus and method for deploying multiple fiber optic drops from an incoming fiber optic strand spliced from a single fiber optic strand. The deployment apparatus providing splitting and terminating functions in a combined splitter-terminal package thereby simplifying installation of the fiber optic deployment. The splitter-terminal package having a splice case, a splitter and connectorized terminations for connecting and incoming fiber optic strand, splitting the incoming fiber optic stand into a number of outgoing strands and terminating the outgoing strands at connectorized terminations.
