Abstract: Systems and devices for, and methods of, interactive event casting, by: (a) scheduling a plurality of transactions, where the scheduling may be based on passing a system time and a channel usage schedule; (b) aggregating the plurality of transactions, where the aggregating results in minimizing data transfer traffic; (c) executing a data compression and error correction scheme, where the data compression scheme may be based on dynamically changing bitrate of a video data stream according to local access point data traffic; and (d) communicating between network devices using multi-cast for compressed video streams with error-correction code and (e) initiating an application, where the initiated application performs error correction, decompresses the received video data stream, and where the decompressed video data stream may be spooled.

Abstract: An apparatus for moving a fiber including a plurality of fiber optic connectors through a system for processing the plurality of fiber optic connectors. The apparatus can include a first drive mechanism for moving the fiber through the system, such as a cart and a conveyor. The apparatus can include a second drive mechanism for moving the plurality of fiber optic connectors through the system, such as a screw drive. The apparatus can also include a controller for coordinating movement of the first drive mechanism with the second drive mechanism.

Abstract: An automated connectorization system for processing fiber optic connectors. The system can include one or more of a polishing station, a cleaning station, a tuning station, a testing station, an SC connector adjust station, an FC connector key press station, and a dust cap station. The connectors can be automatically conveyed and processed through the stations of the system from initial hackle removal through to dust cap application.

Abstract: A fixture for an automated connectorization system for processing fiber optic connectors. The fixture can include a first and second portions configured to hold the connectors. The first portion can include a plurality of clamps, each clamp being configured to clamp onto one of the connectors. The second portion can include a plurality of nests, each nest including an aperture configured to allow a ferrule of one of the connectors to extend therethrough. The second portion of the fixture is coupled to the first portion.

Abstract: A fiber optic polishing apparatus including a support system, a polishing sub-assembly coupled to the support system including a plurality of pads, and a fixture to hold a plurality of fiber optic connectors. The fixture is positioned adjacent to the plurality of pads so that an end surface of each of the plurality of fiber optic connectors is held in contact with a corresponding pad. A drive mechanism is coupled to the support system to move the fixture to polish the end surface of each of the plurality of fiber optic connectors. Each of the plurality of pads may travel independently in a vertical direction. The polishing sub-assembly may further include a web polishing film, a fluid injection module configured to direct water onto the film, and a rinsing module to rub against a face of each of the plurality of fiber optic connectors to remove debris.

Abstract: The core of a honeycomb panel consists of a set of corrugated strips each of which alternate abut the immediately adjacent strips. Interlocking protrusions are formed in the abutting portions of the strips. The protrusions provide automatic registration of the strips without jigging or fixturing. Preferably the protrusions are somewhat undercut to provide a detent or snapping action upon assembly to provide mechanical integrity prior to bonding. The snapping action also holds the abutting surface together for uniform bonding. Lateral registration of the strips can be provided by, for example, forming a lance and window or mating dimples in the abutting surfaces. Bonding of the abutting surfaces can be done by soldering, brazing, or gluing. This honeycomb core structure is suitable for the continuous fabrication of panels of arbitrary length, width, and thickness.
