Abstract:
An electric power and signal distribution system provides for connecting distribution modules (5) to one another in succession by means of connecting plates (28) and screws (29), and for connecting each distribution module (5) by means of screws (25) to a respective cabinet (3); each distribution module (5) having a duct (6), and at least one portion (15) of electric line which is housed inside the duct (6) and has a number of electric power distribution connectors (16).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to telecommunications equipment racks (1) including vertical cable guides (12), horizontal troughs (14, 16), cross aisle panels (18) and cross-connection modules(fig.19) for telecommunications equipment racks. The vertical cable guides (12) define vertical cable channels for both network infrastructure and cross-connection cables. The structure defining the second cable channel is hingedly attached to the structure defining the first cable channel. The horizontal cable troughs (14, 16) include both upper (14) and lower (16) troughs. The upper cable trough (14) defines two cableways for directing cross-connection and other cables, can provides access openings for cables to pass into an out of each cableway and between the two cableways. The lower cable trough (16) defines a cableway and provides access openings for cables extending into and out of the cableway. Cable troughs attached to adjacently mounted equipment racks cooperate to form continuous horizontal cableways. The cross aisle panel (18) includes movable cable guide structures to permit access to connectors mounted on the panel. The cross-connection modules provide multiple connector planes on the rear of the module to increase the number of circuits the module can support.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a rack (10) for mounting telecommunications equipment for receiving cross-connect modules and cables. The rack includes a frame (20) defining a bay formed between two spaced-apart, vertical end walls. The bay is sized for receiving telecommunications equipment. The rack also includes cable managment structure connected to the frame. The cable management structure includes first and second front vertical cable channels (22). Rear cable supports extend rearwardly from the rack. The vertical channels include two nested channels wherein the two vertical channels face each other. A top of the rack includes two nested channels. A base (24) of the rack includes a first plate, and two transversely extending second plates, and a gusset (306) between the transversely extending plates and the vertical channels.
Abstract:
A cable management assembly (100) including a rack (10) and plurality of chassis (24), the rack having three vertical columns coupled to a base (12). The rack defining a two vertical stacks (14, 16) of chassis mounting positions. The chassis mounting positions are spaced from each other and the sides of the system to create a middle cable pathway (30) in addition to two side cable pathways. The chassis (42) include a mounting plate (46) defining a plurality of module apertures. The aperture are sized to receive a stack of cable modules having a linear array of cable connectors. The apertures of the chassis are oriented to allow cables to be guided away from a middle axis toward the sides of the chassis and therefore away from the center-most connectors. The assembly may also include cable management arms (26) having tie down holes (141) for guiding the cables within the cable pathways.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a telecommunication network cross connect cabinet comprising a box (1) wherein are provided splitter modules (7) arranged in columns of modules (7.1, 7.2) disposed in planes mutually offset in depth in the box, the columns of two adjacent planes being mutually offset in width.
Abstract:
An upgradeable patch panel assembly and associated method of upgrading a patch panel assembly. The upgradeable patch panel assembly including a panel base having an aperture sized to receive a scanner interface cable. The method including removing a first cover from the panel base, inserting a scanner interface cable through the existing aperture in the panel base, and attached an upgraded cover to the panel base. Upgrading the patch panel assembly is completed while the assembly remains mounted to a frame and without disconnecting rear cable connections. The upgraded patch panel assembly provides jack-occupancy monitoring capabilities.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verteilerleiste (10) einer Telekommunikationsanlage, mit einem Funktionselement, wobei das Funktionselement Kontaktelemente (11) für den Anschluss ankommender Kabeladern und Kontaktelemente (12) für den Anschluss abgehender Kabeladern aufweist, und wobei das Funktionselement weiterhin mit den Kontaktelementen elektrisch leitend verbundene Kontaktfedern zum Herstellen von Verbindungen zwischen ankommenden Kabeladern und abgehenden Kabeladern aufweist. Erfindungsgemäß umfasst die Verteilerleiste (10) mindestens eine Kompensationseinrichtung (14), die in einen elektrischen Verbindungsweg zwischen einem Kontaktelement (11) für den Anschluss einer ankommenden Kabelader und einem Kontaktelement (12) für den Anschluss einer abgehenden Kabelader integriert ist, wobei die oder jede Kompensationseinrichtung (14) der Kompensation von Nebensprechen bzw. Übersprechen dient.
Abstract:
A patch panel is provided whereby the patch panel can be mounted vertically on a standard rack. The patch panel can contain a plurality of network ports for connecting at least two devices together. The vertical patch panels of the present invention allow for reduction of cable lengths, simplification of the layout, increases in port density, aesthetic benefit due to symmetry of cabling, and significant reduction of overall total cost of ownership.
Abstract:
Mechanisms for mounting, opening, closing and releasing a door assembly relative to a mounting structure are provided. The mechanisms employ a first structure that defines at least one elongated guide channel and a latching subassembly that is adapted to be mounted with respect to the foregoing guide channel(s) and to rotate with respect thereto. Rotation of the latching assembly with respect to the guide channel(s) allows a latching region, e.g., a V shaped latching region, to move between a first position (wherein the latching region is adapted to receive a mounting structure) and a second position (wherein the latching region cannot receive a mounting structure). In the second position, the latching region (in combination with the guide channel) is structured to capture a mounting structure (e.g., a projection associated with a cable management system) therewithin. Methods for use of the door assembly and latching subassembly are provided, as well as particular utilities thereof, e.g., rack-mounting applications.
Abstract:
A shelf unit for use in a rack for communication equipment comprising: a front body including a pair of side panels for containing PCBs; a back board detachably mounted to the rear ends of the side panels of the front body; and a rear body including a pair of side panels for containing PCBs. Connecting members are mounted adjacent to the rear ends of the side panels of the front body and protrude outward therefrom.
