An apparatus for retaining a mobile computing device during data collection and field mapping procedures is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a base element configured to be gripped by a user, a shaft comprising a sliding traction mechanism and a first end, wherein the sliding traction mechanism extends from the first end, a clamping mechanism configured to be affixed to the shaft comprising a second end, wherein the first end and second end cooperate to define an interior space sized for retention of the mobile computing device, and a domed housing configured to house an antenna and a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) processor configured to be communicatively coupled to the mobile computing device.

An enclosure for a power supply circuit board includes a plurality of sheet metal members combined to accommodate a power supply circuit board. The plurality of sheet metal members includes a first sheet metal member. The first sheet metal member includes a main plate having a flat plate shape, and an inner extension connected to the main plate through a bent portion located at an end of the main plate. The inner extension includes a circuit board support for supporting the power supply circuit board. The circuit board support faces the main plate and is separated from the main plate in a direction perpendicular to the main plate. The circuit board support is located within an inner space surrounded by the plurality of sheet metal members.

A computing device and a device mount. The computing device includes a device casing having a front side and a back side and the device mount has a mount end formed with a mount face sized to fit within a recessed portion of the back side of the device casing in contact with a recessed face of the back side of the device casing. The computing device includes permanent magnets to secure the computing device to the mount face by magnetic coupling between with one or more corresponding magnets in the device mount. One of the recessed face or the mount face is formed from a thermoplastic resin and includes a plurality of raised portions. The raised portions project above the recessed face or the mount face, as the case may be, and have a thickness sufficiently small that the raised portions deform under contact between the mount face and the recessed face due to force of the magnetic coupling.

A device is described for ensuring the installation of a component at the designated installation location of said component in a system, made up of two parts, the first part of the device being attached to the component, and the second part of the device being attached to the system to which the component will be attached, and, during installation of the component into the system at the designated installation location of said component, the first part of the device and the second part of the device interlock precisely and enable assembly, in that the first part of the device and the second part of the device interact exclusively mechanically and exclusively enable the ensuring of the installation of the component at the designated installation location of the component in the system. When installing the component at a non-designated installation location on the system, the interaction of the first part of the device and the second part of the device, which form a poka-yoke system with each other, prevents installation.

A device for supporting an electronic display includes a support surface, a display mount configured to be coupled to a display, and a connection mechanism to connect the display mount to the support surface. The connection mechanism is configured to enable a rotation of the display mount between a first position and a second position. The device also includes a set of springs to provide a spring torque that counterbalances a gravitational torque exerted by the display. The connection mechanism causes a translation of the center point of the display relative to the support surface in concert with the rotation. The connection mechanism also causes the center of rotation of the display to shift during the rotation.

A system for removably making a mechanical connection with a portable device, includes a primary connector configured to be adhered to a surface, the primary connector includes a plate defining a guide slot, a tab-receiving aperture, and a tab-rotation aperture. The system further includes a secondary connector configured to be adhered to a portable device. The secondary connector includes a spacer portion disposed between a base wall and a tab. The tab-receiving aperture is configured to receive the tab of the secondary connector and the tab-rotation aperture is configured to allow rotation of the tab of at least one-quarter turn.

Technologies for switching network traffic include a network switch. The network switch includes one or more processors and communication circuitry coupled to the one or more processors. The communication circuity is capable of switching network traffic of multiple link layer protocols. Additionally, the network switch includes one or more memory devices storing instructions that, when executed, cause the network switch to receive, with the communication circuitry through an optical connection, network traffic to be forwarded, and determine a link layer protocol of the received network traffic. The instructions additionally cause the network switch to forward the network traffic as a function of the determined link layer protocol. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

There is provided a supporting body that is able to select a form of support to a display unit in accordance with a user's purpose or preference, an installation environment, or the like. The supporting body supports the display unit, and includes a first supporting unit and a second supporting unit that are detachably provided on the display unit, and a first form and a second form are configured to be selectable. In the first form, the first supporting unit is mounted at a first position of the display unit and the second supporting unit is mounted at a second position of the display unit. In the second form, the second supporting unit is mounted at the first position or a third position of the display unit, and the first supporting unit is mounted at the second position or a fourth position of the display unit.

The present disclosure describes strand mounts for small cell radios and/or antennas. A strand mount may include a plurality of polymeric mounting tubes configured such that one or more small cell radios and/or antennas can be mounted thereto, a pair of polymeric retaining members, each retaining member having a plurality of apertures sized and configured to receive a corresponding end of each mounting tube, and one or more mounting brackets configured to secure the strand mount on a cable strand. Stand mount assemblies are also described herein.

An ethernet bridge mounting arrangement includes a housing including a cover portion and a back portion and a wall mount. The housing is configured to be coupled with the wall mount, and the housing is rotatable relative to the wall mount about an axis that extends in a direction perpendicular to a rear surface of the housing between a first rotational orientation, where latching members extending from the housing can be received by and removed from latch openings in the wall mount, and a second rotational orientation, where the housing is prevented from being pulled away from the wall plate.
