Abstract: Systems and methods for automated network cabling integrity monitoring are provided. In one embodiment a system manager for a network that includes a network switch coupled to patching equipment comprises: at least one processor configured to execute software, the software comprising a network integrity monitor. The network integrity monitor controls a cable diagnostic test function to obtain a fault-distance measurement for a port of the switch. The network integrity monitor correlates the fault-distance measurement with network cable length information associated with the switch port to identify one or both of a network cable segment associated with the fault-distance measurement and a fault location. The cable length information is retrieved from a database. The network integrity monitor produces an output identifying of one or both of the network cable segment associated with the fault-distance measurement and the fault location to be displayed on a display device.

Abstract: One embodiment is directed to detecting that a cable has been connected to a port of patching equipment and detecting that the cable is no longer connected to said port. In response to detecting that the cable is no longer connected, information associated with fixed cabling coupled to said port that is captured by a cable tester is downloaded to a controller. The downloaded information is associated with said port and the downloaded information and association information is locally stored at the controller. The locally stored information can then be used to create and/or populate objects in a database. Another embodiment is directed to including a storage device and a wireless interface in patching equipment or other equipment such as an outlet or consolidation point for use in writing information to the storage device and reading information from the storage device via the wireless interface. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A system for cabling infrastructure that includes at least one port, at least one shutter, at least one sensor and a gateway is provided. The port is configured to be selectively coupled to a connector. Each shutter is configured to have an open state that allows access to an associated port and a closed state that covers the port. Each sensor is configured to sense the open state and the closed state of an associated shutter and generate shutter state signals that include information relating to a current sensed state of the associated shutter and an identification of a port that is associated with the associated shutter. The gateway is in wireless communication with each sensor to receive the shutter state signals. The gateway is configured to communicate the shutter state signals that indicate a change in a state of an associated shutter to a remote location.

Abstract: One embodiment is directed to determining a location of a mobile device associated with an occupant within an indoor area using one or more images captured by at least one camera of the mobile device and a digital three-dimensional model of the indoor area. Information about the location of the mobile device is communicated to an emergency responder. Another embodiment is directed to determining the locations of each mobile device associated with each occupant within an indoor area using one or more images captured using at least one camera of the mobile device, storing each determined location along with an associated time stamp, and using at least some of the stored locations and time stamps in performing contact tracing. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system manager for a network management system comprises: a PSE power management function implemented by a processor; and a cabling information database; wherein the PSE power management function is configured to couple to a power sourcing network switch via a network; wherein the PSE power management function, in response to a request to allocate power from the switch to a network powered device: determines a length of cabling for instances of network cabling that couples the network switch to the network powered device based on network cable length information stored in the cabling information database; determines a power loss based on the length of cabling; and transmits a power allocation command to the network switch to allocate a power level to a network port coupled to the network powered device based on the power loss and a power class of the network powered device.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for accurately determining actual and prospective location(s) of radio(s) located in a structure and controlled by a shared spectrum system. By more accurately knowing the location(s) of the radios, the shared spectrum system can more efficiently allocate maximum transmission power(s) to the radio(s), enhance corresponding radio coverage area(s), and/or diminish interference to other radio(s) and/or primary user(s).
