Abstract: Cable release devices and methods are disclosed. The device includes a frame defining an aperture. The frame is sized to fit around a connector on a printed circuit board (PCB) within a computer system with the connector extending into the aperture. The device further includes a post extending from the frame. The device further includes a lever connected to the post. The lever includes a first end positioned such that the first end aligns with a latch of a cable when the cable is connected to the connector and when the frame is around the connector such that actuation of the lever causes the lever to depress the latch. The actuation causes the release of the cable from being retained by the connector.

Abstract: A method of detecting leakage within a chassis includes mounting the chassis on a plate disposed in a sealed chamber and fluidly connecting, by a pipe, an interior space of the sealed chamber to a water tank such that a bottom end of the pipe is under a surface of water in the water tank. The method further includes determining, such as observing, whether bubbles are formed at the bottom end of the pipe due to pressurized air flowing into the pipe. The method also includes determining presence of a leak in the chassis due to pressurized air flowing between the chassis and the sealed chamber, before flowing into the pipe.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure include a support frame having a rear side, a bottom section, a connector bracket, a first perimeter section, a second perimeter section, and a rotatable bracket.
