Abstract: An apparatus for determining candidate causes of a user experience degradation includes a data collection agent to collect inventory data associated with a managed computer system, a change recording system to process the inventory data and determine any changes and to record change records including time-stamps, an alert detection system to detect alerts (alarms and sensors) including time-duration information and storing alert records, an analysis module to select alert records based on whether the alert, using the time-duration information, occurred in a predetermined lookback period, and identify, for each selected alert records, corresponding change records that precede in time the selected alert records. A user reporting interface outputs the identified change records as the candidate causes.

Abstract: A composite cable connector for terminating a cable segment is provided having at least one fiber optic element and at least one conductor element is provided. The composite cable connector has a connector housing, receiving at a first end, the at least one fiber optic element and at least one conductor element. A ferrule at a second end of the connector housing presents the at least one fiber optic element. At least one crimp on element is positioned at a back end of the connector housing for crimping onto the connector housing and couples with the at least one conductor element. At least one conductive pathway, from the crimp on element to a front end of the connector housing, proximate the ferrule, presenting at least one conductive pathway at a front face of the connector housing.
