  • Patent number: 7778597
    Abstract: A telecommunications chassis, module, and repeater circuit for use with signals having data rates including STM-1 (155.52 megabits per second) are disclosed. The chassis provides structures for establishing shielding and heat dissipation for the circuitry modules it contains including an outer and an inner Faraday box with an integrated ventilation pattern for circulating air. The module provides its own structures for establishing shielding and heat dissipation including a Faraday box and a ventilation pattern. The repeater circuit provides the ability to bridge a data signal between a monitor jack of one device and a higher signal level input jack of another device through multiple amplification stages and circuit board structures. The telecommunications chassis, module, and repeater circuit can be used in conjunction.

  • Publication number: 20050135770
    Abstract: Telecommunications chassis and associated modules for use with the telecommunications chassis are disclosed. Embodiments of the telecommunications chassis include structures such as horizontal channels and/or horizontal surfaces with ridges and/or slots in one surface and slots in ridges of another for receiving edges of modules that mount within the chassis. Other structures of embodiments include divider slots in the horizontal surfaces that receive edges of divider walls to fix the divider walls in place, heat baffle surfaces included within the chassis, and/or cable guides with radius limiters. Module embodiments include structures such as faceplates with angled portions with fiber optic cable connections directed toward the fiber cable's direction of travel. Other module structures include shells that enclose the circuit board and/or provide angled portions with fiber optic cable connections.
