Systems for controlling louver positions are described herein. Such systems may include: a louver frame; a louver coupled to the louver frame via a rotation member and adapted to rotate at a louver side around an axis of rotation at the rotation member. In one embodiment, the louver includes a spring member engagement feature. The system also includes a spring member coupled to the louver frame and adapted to engage with the spring member engagement feature of the louver and apply a force to the louver when a forward airflow is applied to the louver in a forward airflow direction.

In one embodiment, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes a latching component configured to secure a network component within a chassis of a network device when the apparatus is in a first configuration. The latching component is also configured to allow removal of the network component from the chassis of the network device when the apparatus is in a second configuration. The apparatus also includes a handle component coupled to the latching component. The handle component is accessible from a first face of the network component. The handle component is oriented away from the first face. The handle component is configured to facilitate the removal of the network component from the chassis when the apparatus is in the first configuration. The handle component is also configured to facilitate the insertion of the network component into the chassis when the apparatus is in the second configuration.

Handle for insertion and removal of network component

A mechanism to mitigate assembly torsion on an electronics assembly is provided. The mechanism including an electronics assembly and a first connector, mounted to the electronics assembly with a lower portion of the first connector proximal to the electronics assembly and an upper portion of the first connector distal to the electronics assembly. The mechanism includes a spring, mounted so as to press the upper portion of the first connector and preload the first connector against assembly force imparted by assembly of the first connector to a second connector. A method to mitigate assembly torsion on an electronics assembly is also provided.
