A technology is described for a device diagnosis station. The device diagnosis station may be configured to identify an electronic device physically connected to the device diagnosis station, evaluate an operational state of the electronic device by executing testing instructions configured to test the functionality of the electronic device and collect operational state information for the electronic device. The device diagnosis station may be configured to determine the operational state of the electronic device and execute recovery instructions to restore the electronic device to an improved state when a recoverable error is detected. The device diagnosis station may be configured to initiate a device return procedure for the electronic device when a non-recoverable error state is detected.

Device diagnosis

An electrical connection system can include a cage and/or a corresponding cable. The cage can be formed by walls and define faces on the top, bottom, right, left, front, and rear. A rear portion can house a receiving portion of a connector interface, which can be engaged via insertion of a module through the front face, or alternately by insertion of a plug through the top face. The cable at a terminating end can include the plug, which may include a vertical upright column and a horizontal base that includes an insertion portion of the connector interface. The cable at an originating end can include another instance of the receiving portion of the connector interface. A retainer can be provided to retain the plug in engagement with the receiving portion of the connector in the cage. The retainer can include a cover or other structure on the cable and/or cage.
