In some embodiments, an input measurement module may be configured to insert into a slot of a carrier using alignment guide slots and corresponding guide projections. Clips on the input measurement module or the carrier may engage corresponding depressions to secure the input measurement module to the carrier. The clips may be spring-loaded. The input measurement module may include a first outer casing and a second outer casing coupled together around a circuit board that interfaces with a backplane of the carrier through a backplane connector.

Compact input measurement module

A cable management arm (,) according to the invention attaches to a receiver arrangement (,) associated with some structure adapted to slide with a component (,) mounted in a rack structure (,). The receiver arrangement (,) includes an edge feature (,) and a tab receiving feature (,). A connector arrangement (,) includes a connector base (,) with a connector member (,) extending from one side of the connector base and having an intermediate section (,) and a distal section (,). The distal section (,) of the connector member (,) is adapted to hook over the edge feature when the intermediate section is positioned adjacent to, or flush against the edge feature. A retainer member (,) is also connected to the connector base with a retainer tab (,) extending from the retainer member. The retainer tab (,) cooperates with the tab receiving feature (,) to hold the connector member (,) in a connected position.

Connector arrangement and connecting method for cable management arms

The present disclosure provides a computer mounted rack system and an apparatus enabling displacement of a slide mounted chassis. The apparatus includes an elongated member having respective first and second ends and respective first and second surfaces. A handle is also included and is preferably coupled proximate the first end of the elongated member. The apparatus further includes a releasable latch preferably coupled proximate the second end of the elongated member and configured to engage a releasable latch aperture in the slide. Additionally, at least one locking member is preferably coupled to the first surface of the elongated member and is operable to engage the slide.

Apparatus for providing displacement to a slide mounted chassis in a rack

A strain relief device for coupling of a cable connector to a terminal of an electrical device. The strain relief device includes an elongated base member having a flat surface extending between first and second end portions. A fastener is fixedly connected to the flat surface at the first end portion, for releasably fastening the base to an external surface of a housing to the electrical device. A clamping device extends perpendicularly from the base at the second end portion. The clamping device defines an adjustable slot configured to receive the cable connector. Moreover, the slot is moveable to several elevations with respect to the base. When the base is fastened to the external surface of the electrical device, the slot can be moved to align a cable connector received therein with a terminal of the electrical device.
