Abstract:
A data center physical infrastructure management system has a cabinet having rack spaces and a sensor. A data communication system transmits signals to a management database. Personal or automated intervention is determined algorithmically by a data processor. A human interface for the data center management system is provided. Removable electronic assets contained in the rack spaces each have an identifier tag. An identifier tag reader is installed on the cabinet body. A door sensor provides a signal responsive to whether a cabinet door is closed, open, locked, or unlocked. Also, a secure contact arrangement has a base terminal formed of electrically conductive material, and first and second electrically conductive elements. A resilient non-conductive element is interposed between the first and second electrically conductive elements, and a compression element compresses the resilient non-conductive element to cause the first and second electrically conductive elements to communicate with one another.
Abstract:
A building automation system is provided in which a controller is connected to remote modules through a zone enclosure using RS-485 cables. Branches of modules extending from the zone enclosure are connected together by removable jumpers at the zone enclosure. Sets of branches of modules using different protocols are isolated from each other. Shorts in the RS-485 cables can be determined by disconnecting and reconnecting the branches from the network. The zone enclosure has a patch panel that contains modular RS-485 connectors. An RS-485 cable from the controller and pulled through the building along with other data cables is connected to the RS-485 connectors at the back of the patch panel. The modules are connected to the RS-485 connectors at the front of the patch panel through RS-485 cables.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a patch panel for a network rack capable of realizing much more excellent cable management without making it necessary to execute any horizontal cable managing device. SOLUTION: A patch panel 100 formed so as to be attachable to a network rack is provided with a frame 110 and rack mounting boards 130. The frame 110 is formed with a central part having longitudinal width, prescribed height, front side, and back side which are long enough to be fit into the network rack. The rack mounting boards are formed at the both edges of the longitudinal direction of the central part so that the panel can be mounted on the network rack. The central part is shaped like an inverse V character with angles faced outward, and provided with a plurality of cable connectors so that cables can be accepted at the front side part and back side part of the patch panel frame. At the time of mounting the patch panel, the cable connectors are oriented so that the back face can be faced to the common axis of the central part.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem that house modular jacks of keystone jack type prescribed in the industrial standard can not be housed in a conventional patch panel. SOLUTION: This patch panel is provided with a frame, a face plate mountable on the frame, and at least one modular jack of keystone jack type which is mountable on the face plate from the rear face side. The frame is provided with the upper side flange and the lower side flange, and a plurality of apertures are formed in the frame. The face plate is mountable between the upper side flange and the lower side flange of the frame, and a plurality of housing apertures are formed at the face plate. An assembling method of the patch panel is also disclosed. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
Se proporciona una estructura para un gabinete. La estructura incluye una viga lado a lado, una viga de adelante hacia atrás conectada a la viga lado a lado, y un poste vertical conectado a la viga lado a lado. La viga de adelante hacia atrás es insertada con relación al poste vertical para formar un área de dirección de cable a lo largo de un lado de la estructura.
Abstract:
A patch panel (100) mountable to a network rack (500) includes a frame (110) and rack mounting plates (130). The frame (110) forms a central section having a longitudinal width sized to fit within the network rack (500), a predefined height, a front side, and a rear side. The rack mounting plates are provided on opposite longitudinal ends of the central section and allow the panel (100) to be mounted to a network rack (500). The central section is angled outwardly in an inverted V-shape. The central section has mountable thereon a plurality of cable connectors (400) that receive cabling (540) on the front side and the rear side of the patch panel frame (110). When mounted, the plurality of cable connectors (400) are oriented to have rear surfaces thereof face a common axis of the central section. This provides front connector surfaces that are better oriented relative to front side cabling which is provided along vertical cable managers or ducts (530) near front edges of the rack (500) rails. This orientation provides a more natural flow of cables (540) entering the patch panel (100) and reduce bending angles to less than 90 DEG , which reduces or eliminates the need for external horizontal cable management on the front side of the patch panel (100) while maintaining adequate bend radius control. Moreover, the angled frame (110) provides an angled surface that has increased port capacity as compared to a conventional flat-faced patch panel and has an increased volume behind the panel for receiving and housing cabling. A support bar (200) may be provided on the rear side of the patch panel to support the weight of the exiting cabling.
