A communications connection system includes an adapter module defining at least first and second ports and at least one media reading interface mounted at one of the ports. The first adapter module is configured to receive a fiber optic connector at each port. Some type of connectors may be formed as duplex connector arrangements. Some types of adapters may include ports without media reading interfaces. Some types of media reading interfaces include contact members having three contact sections.

Managed fiber connectivity systems

A server rack is cabled to obviate the need for top-of-rack switches. Switches and severs are connected through de-mateable connection interfaces at distribution modules disposed along the raceway above the server cabinets. The distribution modules may have externally accessible ports, internally accessible ports, and/or payout spools for the switch cables and/or the server cables.

Managing cables in fiber installation

A multi-fiber cable assembly includes a pigtail segments spliced to a trunk segment using multiple mass fusion splices. The splices are disposed within an encapsulation at a common axial location. A flexible conduit extends from one end of the encapsulation to protect bare fibers of the trunk segment. A protective sheath extends from the opposite end of the encapsulation to protect the pigtail segments. The conduit and sheath are axially fixed to the encapsulation.

Terminating a cable assembly with connectorized pigtails

A multi-fiber cable assembly includes a pigtail segments spliced to a trunk segment using multiple mass fusion splices. The splices are disposed at axially spaced positions within a hollow, flexible conduit. Fibers of the trunk segment are axially fixed at a first demarcation region disposed at the first end of the conduit. Fibers of the pigtail segments are axially fixed at a separate, second demarcation region disposed at the second end of the conduit.

A telecommunications system () includes a chassis () defining a front (), a rear (), and a plurality of first signal connection locations () adjacent the rear (). A plurality of removable cassettes () are housed within the chassis (), each including a cassette body () defining a fixed portion () that is coupled to one of the first signal connection locations () on the chassis () and a movable portion () that telescopically slides relative to the fixed portion (), wherein the movable portion () is configured for movement in a direction from the front () to the rear () of the chassis (), each cassette () defining a plurality of second signal connection locations (). A cable () between the fixed portion () and the movable portion () extends out from the movable portion () when that portion () is pulled forwardly to an extended position and is retracted into the cassette body () when the movable portion () is pushed rearwardly relative to the fixed portion ().

Telecommunications chassis and module

One exemplary embodiment is directed to a system comprising a switch used in a network and a central function configured to receive physical layer information related to the network. The physical layer information includes information associating media access control (MAC) addresses of devices on the network with ports of the switch. The switch is configured to use information about a spanning tree determined by the central function to configure the switch to carry out a switching function performed by the switch. The central function is configured to use at least some physical layer information about patching equipment in the network and end devices in the network in associating MAC addresses of devices on the network with the ports of the switch. Other embodiments are disclosed.

System including management system to determine configuration for inter-networking device based on physical layer information of a network

This document presents a system and method for defining and controlling lights, audio systems, and any other home automation device by connection with an exterior network access port. The exterior network access is accomplished by pairing all network capable devices with a known intermediate network maintained by a master control unit. After association with the known intermediate network, the exterior network SSID and passkey are provided to the master control unit and then transmitted to each network capable device. The network capable devices connect to the exterior network by replacing the intermediate SSID and passkey information with the exterior network information.
