  • Patent number: 11216046
    Abstract: A laminate curtain can suppress electromagnetic radiation leakage from an electronic appliance, as well as assist in managing cables interconnected to the electronic appliance. More specifically, a laminate curtain can include a conductive elastomer panel that absorbs spurious electromagnetic radiation generated by the electronic appliance, a conductive adhesive film disposed along one side of the conductive elastomer panel, and a conductive support frame affixed to the conductive adhesive film. The laminate curtain can be installed within a mounting frame, which secures the laminate curtain to the electronic appliance. Electromagnetic radiation that is absorbed by the conductive elastomer panel can travel to the electronic appliance via the conductive adhesive film, the conductive support frame, and the mounting frame. Thus, the conductive elastomer panel can be used to form a ground plane that catches and shunts the spurious electromagnetic radiation to the electronic appliance, which is grounded.

  • Publication number: 20200077535
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for an Input/Output (I/O) expansion device configured for slidable insertion within and removal from a plurality of slots of a storage rack having an electrical backplane comprising a plurality of high-speed Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) lanes. The I/O expansion device operates as a multi-slot front caddy that extends an I/O interface of the storage rack to allow interconnection with storage and/or compute equipment external from the rack. The I/O expansion device comprises a front plate comprising an aggregate electrical storage connector configured to interface with storage and computing devices. The I/O expansion device comprises a rear plate comprising backplane electrical connectors configured to interface with the high-speed PCIe lanes of the electrical backplane.
