Publication number: 20240094479Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and method for deploying a fiber optic network. Distribution devices are used to index fibers within the system to ensure that live fibers are provided at output locations throughout the system. In an example, fibers can be indexed in multiple directions within the system. In an example, fibers can be stored and deployed form storage spools.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: CommScope Technologies LLCInventors: Paul Kmit, Thomas Parsons, Erik J.

Patent number: 11934024Abstract: A telecommunications chassis comprises a cable sealing portion defining at least one cable opening configured to sealably receive a cable and a module mounting portion extending from the cable sealing portion, which further comprises a housing defining an open front closable by a door to define an interior, a rear wall, a right wall, and a left wall. A plurality of module mounting locations is provided in a vertically stacked arrangement, each configured to receive a telecommunications module through the open front. An exterior of the housing includes a first column of radius limiters defining curved profiles for guiding cables from the front toward the rear with bend control. A second column of radius limiters in the form of spools is spaced apart and generally parallel to the first column of radius limiters and a third column of radius limiters, at least some of which are in the form of spools, is also spaced apart and generally parallel to the first and second columns of radius limiters.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: CommScope Technologies LLCInventors: James J. Solheid, Kristofer Bolster, Soutsada Vongseng, Thomas G. LeBlanc

Publication number: 20190332336Abstract: In order to enable downloading to a mobile printer data items from a server, a method comprising the steps of establishing communication connection end points (“sockets”), communicating with the server, where the communication includes sending a request for authentication to the server, receiving an authentication response, requesting print data portions from the server, receiving the requested print data portions, and notifying the server after each print data portion has been printed. The method also includes the step of terminating their communication connection when a printing session ends or if an error occurs. The method constitutes a printer-server protocol.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2019Publication date: October 31, 2019Inventors: Alan L. Moyer, Thomas J. LeBlanc, Leonid Winestein

Publication number: 20080316291Abstract: A parametric programmable thermal printer is disclosed. The printer may include a controller that performs functions such as thermal history control and common mode voltage correction. The controller may be implemented in an integrated programmable medium such as a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Functions performed by the controller may be parameterized, and parameter values may be stored in registers. The controller may be used with a different thermal printer by changing the parameter values and/or reprogramming the programmable medium, and without otherwise redesigning or remanufacturing the controller.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 27, 2008Publication date: December 25, 2008Inventor: Thomas J.
