Patent number: 12273408Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for migrating a computer application from an entity's premises to a web services platform. Data from multiple sources on the entity's premises is gathered and normalized into a common format. The normalized data is used to create a topology of the network on the entity's premises. This topology is analyzed to determine whether a computer application executing on the entity's premises may be migrated to the web service platform.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2019Date of Patent: April 8, 2025Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Matthew John Fitzgerald, Kevin Edward Kelly, Rudolph Vaughn Valdez, Paul Horvath

Patent number: 12273667Abstract: The techniques described herein are directed to an in-line diagnostic tool of a PON that optically couples a first component of the PON and a second component of the PON. The tool detects incoming optical signals (e.g., of different services) received from the first PON component and passes the optical signals through the tool to the second PON component. The in-line diagnostic tool is configured to detect one or more conditions of the incoming optical signals, the PON, and/or sub-components of the tool, perform one or more diagnostic and/or analytics routines, and generate and transmit a diagnostic signal including information indicative of the detected conditions and/or the results of the diagnostic and/or analytics routines to be transmitted via one or more output interfaces of the in-line diagnostic tool to recipient devices and/or applications.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2024Date of Patent: April 8, 2025Assignee: FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, LLCInventor: John Valdez

Patent number: 12244983Abstract: A PON system includes both a PON via which optical services are delivered and a wireless network overlaying the PON. The wireless network may be a self-organizing wireless mesh network, and may generally operate as a logical signaling pathway via which information regarding optical states/statuses of PON components and/or related information is delivered from the field to back-end servers of the PON system. Accordingly, the system may include multiple in-common nodes (e.g., OLTs, LMTUs, etc.) which are included in both the PON and the wireless network. Based on optical information received via the wireless network, the servers can localize the physical location of a PON fault to a particular geographical region of multiple regions serviced by the PON (in some cases narrowing the fault's physical location to a particular span, FDH, or optical terminal), and may dispatch a technician directly to the localized physical location to address the fault.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2024Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignee: FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, LLCInventors: John Valdez, Soms Wongbar, Bryan Pauling

Each input communication port is configured to receive, via a separate optical fiber, optical communications each having a wavelength within a particular wavelength band corresponding to a particular optical service. At least one of the input communication ports is configured to receive optical communications having wavelengths within two or more different wavelength bands. The housing also includes an output communication port configured to transmit, via a single optical fiber, the optical communications from each of the plurality of input communication ports.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2023Publication date: February 27, 2025Inventors: John Valdez, Erwin Wardojo

Publication number: 20250063342Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for camouflaging user data. A user device (e.g., a mobile device, a computing device, an Internet-of-Things (IoT) device, a profile manager configured with a device, etc.) may identify a first data pattern for a first device at a first location and a second data pattern for a second device at a second location. The first data pattern may be modified to indicate an identifier of the second device and an identifier of the second location. A request from the first device for content from a content source may be modified to indicate an identifier of a third device, an identifier of a third location, and/or the like. A data stream may be output that includes the modified first data pattern and the modified request for the content.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2023Publication date: February 20, 2025Applicant: Frontier Communications Holdings, LLCInventor: John VALDEZ

Patent number: 12224796Abstract: Systems and methods for tracking fiber port availability in a fiber distribution hub are presented. An exemplary method may include: responsive to a detection of a disconnection of a termination unit associated with the fiber distribution hub, the termination unit associated with a first port of a plurality of candidate ports, automatically updating, by one or more processors, a fiber distribution record representative of port availability in the fiber distribution hub such that the fiber distribution record is representative of an association between the termination unit and a second port of the plurality of candidate ports; generating, by the one or more processors and based on the detection of the disconnection of the termination unit, an indication of the second port; and transmitting, by the one or more processors, the indication of the second port to at least one of a computing device or a user interface.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2024Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, LLCInventors: Carlo Nino Alba, John Valdez, Vincenzo Gaccetta

Patent number: 12199814Abstract: Techniques for augmenting repair of a network failure in a Passive Optical Network (PON) include receiving sensor data at a client device indicating a current environment that includes an optical network terminal (ONT) in a PON. The PON includes an optical line terminal (OLT) optically connected to the ONT via one or more optical fibers. The client device analyzes the current environment to detect a cause of a network failure corresponding to the ONT, and generates a set of instructions for repairing the ONT based on the detected cause of the network failure. Then the client device provides the set of instructions for a user to follow to repair the ONT. The set of instructions are provided as the user repairs the ONT.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2024Date of Patent: January 14, 2025Assignee: FRONTIER COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, LLCInventors: John Valdez, Bryan Pauling, Eduardo Flores

Publication number: 20250015889Abstract: The techniques described within this disclosure are directed to an in-line adaptor or coupling device of a PON that detects incoming optical signals (e.g., of different services) being delivered over the PON on different bands of wavelengths supported by an incoming optical fiber of the PON, converts (if necessary) any optical signals to suitable wavelength signals, and transmits the converted optical signals to a last mile termination unit via suitable output interfaces. At least a portion of the incoming optical signals are not converted by the in-line adaptor, and instead are passed-through the in-line adaptor to the last mile termination unit via an optical output interface. The in-line adaptor further includes one or more wireless interfaces via which information pertaining to the received optical signals and/or other information related to the in-line adaptor is transmitted to one or more recipient devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 18, 2024Publication date: January 9, 2025Inventor: John Valdez
