  • Patent number: 10641977
    Abstract: An example optoelectronic module may include an optical subassembly (OSA), an optical port block, a housing, and a holder. The OSA may be configured to convert between optical and electrical signals. The optical port block may be attached to the OSA and may be configured to optically align a fiber optic cable with the OSA. The housing may be configured to substantially enclose the OSA and the optical port block. The holder may be configured to couple the OSA and the optical port block to the housing. The holder may be detachably coupled to the optical port block and fixedly coupled to the housing.

  • Patent number: 10551579
    Abstract: A ferrule-to-lens latch mechanism includes a cover movable with respect to a housing of an optical assembly between an open position in which a cavity defined by the housing is visible and a closed position in which the cavity is covered by the cover. A lens is positioned in the cavity and has one or more guide pins which are visible when the cover is in the open position prior to mating a ferrule to the lens. A spring clip coupled to the housing and positioned in the cavity is configured to allow insertion and removal of the ferrule from the cavity when the cover is in the open position and may bias the ferrule against the lens when the ferrule is mated to the lens. When the ferrule is mated to the lens, the cover may cooperate with the spring clip to inhibit removal of the ferrule.

  • Patent number: 9995886
    Abstract: An embodiment includes a cable connector that includes a connector housing, a fiber support structure, and a latch structure. The connector housing defines a housing cavity. The fiber support structure is attached to the connector housing and extends therefrom in a first direction. The fiber support structure defines a fiber cavity configured to receive a fiber subassembly. The latch structure is attached to the connector housing at a first end and extends therefrom in the first direction. The latch structure is separated in a second direction from the fiber support structure and includes a ramped surface at a second end. The ramped surface displaces the latch structure in a direction opposite the second direction in response to a force in a direction opposite the first direction and does not include a release structure configured to disengage the latch structure from latch tabs of a communication module.

  • Patent number: 9990230
    Abstract: A system for scheduling a notebook execution includes an interface and a processor. The interface is to receive an indication to schedule a notebook for execution, wherein the indication comprises a scheduled time and a cluster. The processor is to determine whether it is the scheduled time; and in the event that it is the scheduled time: determine whether the cluster is running; and in the event that the cluster is not running, set up the cluster and cause the notebook to execute using the cluster.

  • Patent number: 9918416
    Abstract: An electromagnetic interference (EMI) shield may include a first shield section configured to be positioned on a first portion of an optical subassembly and a second shield section configured to be positioned on a second portion of the optical subassembly. The first shield section may be configured to contact the second shield section such that the first shield section and the second shield section are held in place when the first shield section and the second shield section are positioned, respectively, on the first portion and the second portion of the optical subassembly.
