A system for sensing and indicating orientation of electrical equipment has an orientation sensor and control logic. The control logic is configured to compare predefined data with a sensed orientation of the electrical equipment in order to determine whether the sensed orientation of the equipment is within an acceptable range such that sufficient cooling by a cooling system is likely to occur. If the sensed orientation of the equipment is not within the acceptable range, the control logic transmits a notification signal so that corrective action can occur. As an example, the notification signal may be used to notify a user of the improper orientation. In another example, the notification signal automatically triggers an action that compensates for the improper orientation.

An optical communication system has a transmitter that generates an optical signal containing payload data and security data. The transmitter double modulates an optical signal where payload data is in-band and security data is out-of-band. If a man-in-the-middle attack occurs and the intrusion device is unable to detect the out-of-band signal, the intrusion device will not replicate the out-of-band signal thereby allowing the presence of the intrusion device to be detected.

A method and apparatus for reducing signal distortion in a high speed data communications system caused by a flux imbalance in a system coupling transformer. The signal distortion is monitored by a combination echo canceller circuit connected to the equipment side winding of the transformer, thereby generating an error signal. Changes in the error signal are used by a flux controller to provide a flux cancellation signal. The flux cancellation signal is added with the data signal to generate an offsetting flux signal to the transformer.
