An apparatus for dispensing solid articles includes a manifold assembly. The manifold assembly includes a manifold and a door assembly. The manifold has a plenum and an inlet port in fluid communication with the plenum. The door assembly includes a door panel and a shield. The door panel is selectively moveable between a closed position, wherein the door panel restricts airflow through the inlet port, and an open position, wherein the door panel permits airflow through the inlet port. The shield defines a pocket to receive the door panel in the open position and thereby reduce or restrict flow of air behind the door panel.

Apparatus for dispensing solid articles and methods for using same

An apparatus for guiding air through electronic components is disclosed. The apparatus has an intake, a transition portion, and a focused egress. The transition portion is connected to the intake and defines a channel. The channel has a generally 'u' shaped cross-section and a first edge and a second edge configured to be positioned substantially opposing a surface. The focused egress is connected to the transition portion.

Apparatus for cooling electronics

A crossbar cable to connect a crossbar switch with a plurality of outputs comprises a switch connector, a plurality of cables, a plurality of device connectors, and an encasing wrap. The switch connector comprises a plurality of sockets. Each cable has wires connected at a first end to a subset of the sockets in the switch connector. Each device connector is connected to a second end of the wires of one of the plurality of cables. Each of the device connectors is communicatively coupled over the wires to the subset of sockets at the first end of its respective one of the plurality of cables. An encasing wrap bundles the plurality of cables at least at the first ends of the plurality of cables.

Crossbar cable including encasing wrap

An apparatus for managing cables and configured to attach to a side of an electronic device is disclosed. The apparatus has a first planar member which has a plurality of attach points that match a plurality of attach points on an electronic device. The first planar member defines an aperture at least as large as a cable to be attached to the electronic device. The apparatus also has a second planar member parallel to the first planar member. The second planar member has a plurality of attach points that match a plurality of attach points on the electronic device. Additionally, the apparatus has a first support bar connected to and positioned normal to the first planar member and the second planar member.

Cable management system

A network interface device is provided. The network interface device comprises an enclosure having a first portion coupled to a second portion wherein the first portion and second portion have cavities. The network interface device further comprises a removable case having a plate and a base wherein the plate is adapted to be coupled to the base, wherein the case is adapted to be removably disposed in the cavity of the second portion of the enclosure. A network interface circuit is disposed in the case, the network interface circuit is adapted to provide communication to and from a network and to and from at least one customer premise equipment.

Network interface device having improved thermal properties

A fiber sub-system is provided. The fiber sub-system comprises a fiber optic transmission module, one or more contact boards adapted to couple to shelf interface connectors, and a midplane adapted to couple with the one or more contact boards and the fiber optic transmission module enabling communication between the one or more contact boards and the fiber optic transmission module without requiring modifications to the fiber optic transmission module. The fiber sub-system also comprises a shell for encapsulating the fiber optic transmission module, the one or more contact boards, and the midplane.

Fiber sub-system for a shelf

Housing for fiber sub-system

A housing for a plurality of electronic circuit cards is provided. The housing includes a shell and a single door adapted to selectively close the shell. The housing has a first shelf having opposing first and second edges in frictional engagement with the shell to thermally couple the first shelf to the shell. Moreover, the housing has a second shelf having opposing first and second edges directly contacting the shell to thermally couple the second shelf to the shell. The first and second shelves define a space therebetween for containing the plurality of electronic circuit cards. A backplane is disposed within the shell. The second shelf is removably attached to the shell to enable the backplane to be installed or removed via the single door.
