  • Cable identification and cable management sliding device
    Patent number: 6777618
    Abstract: A sliding device to identify and trace interconnect cable includes a directional indicator to indicate a user-identified cable orientation, a predefined labeling area for receiving a user-applied identifier, and an interior passageway for receiving a cable. A cable is traced by sliding the device along the cable. The device may have an interlock mechanism, in which a clip portion on one device interlocks with a flange portion on an adjacent device, to attach sliding devices together in parallel to organize clearly and identify multiple cables. The device may be assembled from multiple component parts that fit and connect together around a cable.

  • Cable interconnection for audio component system
    Patent number: 5033091
    Abstract: A cable interconnection for an audio component system includes a first cable and a second cable. The first cable has a pair of first conductors, each of the first conductors are adapted to make an electrical connection between a source positive terminal and a load positive terminal of a signal source and load, respectively. The second cable has a trio of second conductors. A first one and a second one of the trio of second conductors, are each adapted to make an electrical connection between a source negative terminal and a load negative terminal of the source and load. A third one of the trio of second conductors is adapted to be coupled electrically only to the load negative terminal. The third one of the second conductors extends substantially the full length of the second cable. A rheostat may be provided to be coupled electrically in series between the third one of the second conductors and the load negative terminal.
