In an embodiment, a data processing system comprises: a power distribution circuit that is configured to distribute electrical power to one or more network devices; a microcontroller; data transceiving logic that is configured to establish connectivity with the one or more network devices and the power distribution apparatus; receive a first data stream from a first network device; generate a combined signal by combining the first data stream with a power signal into the combined signal; one or more ports that are configured to transmit the combined signal to the one or more network devices.

Device communication with power distribution units

A method, apparatus and computer program product for preventing infection propagation in a DMVPN is presented. An infected spoke router site is isolated from the DMVPN network such that the spoke router may (bi-directionally) completely or partially limit communicating with any network devices (including the hub router, any other spoke routers etc.) within the DMVPN which prevents the DMVPN melt-down, isolates a worm-infected spoke router site from the rest of the DMVPN and restricts the spread of the worm within the DMVPN network.

Systems and methods are provided to facilitate the distribution of audio signals over wireless networks. In one implementation, an audio system includes a head end having an encoder and a wireless network interface. Audio signals associated with a plurality of audio channels are processed by the encoder to provide an encoded signal in accordance with an audio codec. The encoded signal can be provided to a wireless network by the wireless network interface as a plurality of data packets associated with a network address in accordance with a wireless networking protocol, such as an IEEE 802.11 protocol. One or more remote endpoints can also be provided to receive the data packets from the wireless network, assemble the data packets to obtain the encoded signal, and extract at least one of the audio signals from the encoded signal in accordance with the audio codec. Multicast and unicast implementations are also provided.

Wireless audio systems and related methods

An interface comprising a docking site having a first electrical connector adapted to interconnect a bus, and having at least one first retainer portion; and an adapter comprising: at least one second retainer portion, wherein the at least one second retainer portion and the at least one first retainer portion are adapted to releasably engage; a second electrical connector, wherein the second electrical connector and the first electrical connector are adapted to engage and interconnect; at least one port adapted to accept at least one modular connector having at least one electrical contact; and at least one electrical interconnect adapted to interconnect the at least one electrical contact with the second electrical connector.
