  • Patent number: 9386723
    Abstract: A universal cable bracket that enables one or more cables to be secured to a telecommunications chassis accommodates cables of various sizes and styles. The cable bracket is configured to be mounted in one of multiple orientations relative to the chassis. One or more fasteners can be inserted through apertures in the bracket and a chassis mounting surface to secure the bracket into the desired orientation. Cables or fanout arrangements can be secured to a platform of the bracket via cable ties or other windings.

  • Patent number: 8999029
    Abstract: A furnace filter box for mounting next to an intake air opening in a furnace. The filter box is adapted for receiving a furnace filter therein for filtering intake air. The filter box includes a front panel with a furnace filter door. The front panel is attached to sides of a first side panel and a second side panel. The first and second panels are attached to a back panel. A bottom panel is attached to a bottom portion of the front, back and first and second side panels. Mounted to an inside of an upper portion of the first and second side panels are filter rails. The filter rails are adapted for holding the furnace filter next to an open top in the filter box.

  • Patent number: 7418239
    Abstract: Reselection methods for wireless communication devices, for example cellular telephones, that reduce power consumption by receiving periodic paging information (210) concurrently with the performance of periodic signal measurements (230) and reselection processing (250) to increase minimal power consumption mode operation. In some embodiment, the reselection processing (252) is performed on prior signal measurements (230) while obtaining present signal measurement data (240).

  • Publication number: 20070004445
    Abstract: An apparatus and method of cell selection in a wireless network for a device operating on a serving cell. A quality threshold is received. A selected radio access technology is prioritized for reselection if at least one radio access technology neighbor cell meets basic criteria for a suitable cell and a computed value of a signal quality suitability criterion of the radio access technology neighbor cell exceeds the quality threshold.

  • Publication number: 20050148349
    Abstract: A method in a wireless communications device, including selecting (210) a cell, and after selection, configuring (230) the wireless communications device for a paging channel of a cell camped on previously using system information obtained for the cell camped on previously whether or not the selected cell is the same as the cell camped on previously. In some embodiments, updated system information is obtained for the selected cell if the selected cell is the same as the cell camped on previously, and the paging channel is reconfigured (250) based upon any updated system information obtained for the selected cell. In other embodiments, system information is obtained for the selected cell while the wireless communications device is configured for the paging channel of the cell camped on previously.
