  • Patent number: 10345538
    Abstract: A breakout box, breakout box system, and method for management of optical fibers. The breakout box system provides a pass-through system for connecting optical fibers to network rack modules. The external routing of incoming and outgoing cables around the rack is kept neat and orderly, with one large cable serving a plurality of shelves. The breakout of the cable and distribution of the fibers to the individual modules occurs inside the breakout boxes and bridges, which provide protection for the fibers while still allowing easy access for fiber handling by means of the removable lids.

  • Publication number: 20190167272
    Abstract: Described is an inflatable implant suitable for placement in the human body and left there for an indeterminate and potentially lengthy period of time. The implant is one that has a low profile when introduced into the body and a larger profile when it is inflated with one or more filler materials. Depending upon design and use choices the delivered implant may be removable and adjustable in situ in size, position, location, form, and rigidity. Indeed, in some variations, the design of the implant may be such that it may be removed at a potentially fairly lengthy time after implantation. The implant includes at least one bladder wall that generally is at least partially non-elastic (or unexpandable) after the preselected size is reached. The bladder wall will define at least one fillable volume and may form more than one independent fillable volumes. The bladder wall, in some variations, may be partially elastic or expandable to permit adjustment of implant size or configuration after or during delivery.

  • Patent number: 9992179
    Abstract: A system includes a plurality of mail encryption gateways and a router. Each mail encryption gateway encrypts email according to an encryption policy of a customer. The router stores a plurality of sender policy framework (SPF) records. The router also receives an email and compares a source IP address of the email with the plurality of SPF records. The router determines that the source IP address corresponds to an SPF record of the plurality of SPF records and in response to that determination, determines that a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol From Field of the email comprises a domain of a cloud provider corresponding to the SPF record. In response to that determination, the router determines that a Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension From Field of the email comprises a domain of a customer and in response to that determination, routes the email to a mail encryption gateway.

  • Publication number: 20160363971
    Abstract: A thermal control system that includes a combination of active and passive components is described herein. In one or more implementation, the thermal control system compensates for non-uniformities in a temperature profile for an arrangement of components within a computing device. One or more active components of the thermal control system transfer heat away from heat-generating devices by active means, such as active transfer to a moving fluid that is driven by a blower or fan. Additionally, one or more passive components are positioned to transfer heat to selected areas of the device using passive transfer devices, such as heat-pipes and thermal spreaders made of conductive materials. The active and passive components operate together to compensate for temperature variations across the device surfaces, produce a controlled temperature profile having greater uniformity, reduce overall differences in surface temperatures, and provide greater capability for heat dissipation.
