  • Patent number: 10168502
    Abstract: Advantageous fiber optic connector assemblies (e.g., fiber cassette or adapter modules) are provided for use in communication systems, and improved methods for using the fiber optic connector assemblies are also provided. More particularly, improved systems/methods for the design and use of media patching systems having connector assemblies that include a slide lock member are provided. The connector assemblies are easily secured and/or unsecured to or from a media system (e.g., to or from a panel member of a media system). In exemplary embodiments, improved systems and methods are provided for easily securing and/or unsecuring fiber optic connector assemblies to or from a panel member or the like by utilizing advantageous connector assemblies that include a slide lock member, and related assemblies.

  • Patent number: 9303440
    Abstract: Improved door assemblies and related methods of use are provided. More particularly, the present disclosure provides advantageous systems/methods for the design and use of door assemblies configured to mount with respect to a mounting structure associated with a rack or the like. The present disclosure provides for mechanisms for mounting, opening, closing and releasing a door assembly relative to a mounting structure. The present disclosure provides for a rack-mounted door assembly having alternative pivoting axes. Exemplary door assemblies of the present disclosure are configured so as to be simultaneously hinged at the left and at the right, and to permit easy opening from either the right or left, as well as to allow for the complete removal of the door from its mounting structure.
