Abstract: The invention refers to a telecommunications system comprising a module rack that defines a core bay, a service plane and a rack interface plane where the service plane is transverse to the rack interface plane. The core bay is in part bounded by the service plane and the rack interface plane. The telecommunications system also comprises a series of electronics modules each defining an electronics orientation plane where each of the modules includes two opposed cooling surfaces oriented substantially parallel to the electronics orientation plane. Each of the electronics modules is removably secured within the core bay. The series of the electronics modules forms an array such that their electronics orientation planes are substantially perpendicular to both the rack interface plane and the service plane. The array also defines at least one coolant stream passage across each cooling surface.

Abstract: Circuit pack wherein the electronic components are arranged with high temperature operating components on one side of a PCB and low temperature components on the other side. The PCB acts as a thermal insulator to restrict heat flow from the hot to cooler components. The components on each side of the board are disposed in a vertical connection chimney for heat removal.

Abstract: A floppy disk liner is formed of one or more latex bonded non-woven fibers. The fibers forming the liner may be formed from a cellulosic material, a thermoplastic material, or a combination of cellulosic and thermoplastic materials. At least one side of the liner has a plurality of indentations that do not entirely penetrate the liner. The indentations may occupy a total of not less than about 15% of the surface area of the liner.

Abstract: Electronic unit in which a printed circuit board is located within a housing which includes a heat sink. The board is normally urged out of heat conductive relationship with the heat sink. As temperature increases the circuit board and heat sink are caused to move relatively so as to bring the board into heat conductive relationship with the heat sink so as to remove heat from the board. As temperature decreases the board and heat sink are again moved out of heat conductive relationship. Preferably a heat conduction element is provided to conduct heat from the board. This comprises at least one compressible member, e.g. compressible cellular material, which is progressively compressed as temperature increases. Preferably the heat conductive efficiency of the compressible member increases as compression increases.
