  • Patent number: 8717190
    Abstract: Network device includes a plate, an OTST plate, and a light source. First plate is situated at a first side of the network device wherein the first side can be the front side of device. OTST plate is situated at a second side of the network device and positioned substantially perpendicular to the plate, wherein the OTST plate having a first surface and a second surface further includes status indicators showing performance status associated with the network device. The light source, in one embodiment, can be an LED device capable of projecting a light beam with a predefined angle onto the first surface of OTST plate illuminating one or more status indicators. At least one status indicator is viewable from the second surface or bottom surface of OTST second plate when at least a portion of OTST plate is illuminated.

  • Publication number: 20140035758
    Abstract: A network device and method for improving performance monitoring capabilities using wide view angle indicators are disclosed. The network device or system, in one embodiment, includes a first plate, a second plate, and a first light source. The first plate includes an edge lip or lip containing a graphic viewing surface. Various ultraviolet (“UV”) inked icons indicating functional performance are inscribed in or on the graphic viewing surface. The second plate is situated substantially perpendicular to the first plate, wherein an edge of the second plate is positioned adjacent to the graphic viewing surface. The first light source is configured to selectively project a UV light onto at least a portion of the graphic viewing surface to active at least one UV inked icon.
