Abstract: Devices and methods for a communication device having at least one power supply unit coupled to a power connector for providing an operating power for operation of network modules of the communication device and a PoE power for the ports connected to Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices. The PoE power includes a consumable power to power up at least one PoE devices and a leftover power. Further, a PoE power harvester adapter is coupled to a power connector to convert the leftover PoE power into additional operating power for operating additional network modules.

Abstract: A connection is established between a host device and an internal memory of a computing device. A voltage is received by the computing device from the host device. Upon receiving the regulated voltage, the internal memory of the computing device can exchange data with the host device.

Abstract: According to an example, an adapter is to provide power to a plurality of electronic components from a first power supply. The adapter may include a first connector to connect to the first power supply, a plurality of second connectors to connect to the plurality of electronic components, a plurality of lines connecting the first connector to each of the second connectors, in which each of the plurality of electronic components is to receive power from the first power supply through the plurality of lines, and a controller to detect a fault in the receipt of power from a second power supply in an electronic component of the plurality of electronic components and in which the controller is to request allocation of power from the first power supply to supply power to the electronic component.

Abstract: A method of forming a fusible link on a printed circuit board. The method comprises integrally forming a first end pad, a second end pad, and a fusible link between the first and the second end pads on the printed circuit board; wherein the cross-sectional area of the fusible link is smaller than that of the first and second end pads.
