Fiber distribution device
A fiber distribution device includes a swing frame chassis pivotally mounted to a support structure. At least a first optical splitter module is mounted to the swing frame chassis. Pigtails having connectorized ends are carried by the swing frame chassis and have portions that are routed generally vertically on the swing frame chassis. An optical termination field includes fiber optic adapters carried by the swing frame chassis. The fiber optic adapters are configured to receive the connectorized ends of the pigtails.
Internet of things (IOT) system for cabling infrastructure
A system for cabling infrastructure that includes at least one port, at least one shutter, at least one sensor and a gateway is provided. The port is configured to be selectively coupled to a connector. Each shutter is configured to have an open state that allows access to an associated port and a closed state that covers the port. Each sensor is configured to sense the open state and the closed state of an associated shutter and generate shutter state signals that include information relating to a current sensed state of the associated shutter and an identification of a port that is associated with the associated shutter. The gateway is in wireless communication with each sensor to receive the shutter state signals. The gateway is configured to communicate the shutter state signals that indicate a change in a state of an associated shutter to a remote location.
Sealed enclosure with output ports
Certain types of aggregation enclosures include cable input ports and downwardly angled cable output ports. A cover is pivotally coupled to the body so that the cover moves between an open position and a closed position. A modular component panel may be disposed within the enclosure. The component panel includes one or more distribution components (e.g., fiber distribution components or power distribution components) configured to connect at least a portion of an incoming cable to at least a portion of an outgoing cable.
MANAGED CONNECTIVITY IN ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AND METHODS THEREOF
An electrical connector arrangement includes a storage device coupled to a connector housing. The storage device is configured to store physical layer information pertaining to the electrical connector arrangement. The storage device also has contacts that enable the physical layer information to be read from the storage device by a media reading interface. A connector assembly includes at least one receptacle assembly; a printed circuit board; and a media reading interface.
FIBER DISTRIBUTION DEVICE
A fiber distribution device includes a swing frame chassis pivotally mounted to a support structure. At least a first optical splitter module is mounted to the swing frame chassis. Pigtails having connectorized ends are carried by the swing frame chassis and have portions that are routed generally vertically on the swing frame chassis. An optical termination field includes fiber optic adapters carried by the swing frame chassis. The fiber optic adapters are configured to receive the connectorized ends of the pigtails.
CABLE BACKPLANE SYSTEM HAVING INDIVIDUALLY REMOVABLE CABLE CONNECTOR ASSEMBLIES
A cable backplane system includes cable backplanes each including a tray configured to be coupled to a chassis and a plurality of cable connector assemblies mounted to the tray. The tray has a plate extending between a front and a rear with mounting locations receiving corresponding cable connector assemblies. The trays are oriented parallel to each other with front openings between the fronts of the plates and rear openings between the rears of the plates. Each cable connector assembly has a housing holding contacts terminated to corresponding cables. Each cable connector assembly has a holder mounted to the corresponding mounting location of the plate. The holder is mounted to the plate and removable from the plate through the rear opening at the rear of the plate.
Mounting configurations for optical fiber distribution systems
A cable management unit including a support assembly for mounting a patch panel, such as to a wall. The support assembly may include first and second anchor members adapted to be anchored to the wall, and first and second support arms hingedly coupled to the first and second anchor members at first and second hinge points, respectively. The first and second support arms may be adapted to be coupled to the patch panel. A chassis the patch panel may be supported by the first and second support arms. The first and second support arms may be configured to pivot about the first and second hinge points respectively between storage and access positions. The first and second support arms may extend outward from the wall in the access position and may be substantially parallel to the wall in the storage position.
Panel-Mounted Network Switch For An Ingress-Protected Enclosure
A network switch suitable to form part of an ingress-protected enclosure, the network switch including: an inward-facing cover having at least one inward-facing port for connecting a networked device; an outward-facing cover having multiple outward-facing ports for connecting networked devices; and processing circuitry configured to establish network connections among the inward-facing and outward-facing ports.

BALLASTED TELECOMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT MOUNTS AND ASSEMBLIES
The present disclosure describes a telecommunications equipment mount. The mount includes a stabilization frame having a bottom and at least three sides, the bottom and sides defining an open interior cavity, at least one mounting member perpendicular to one of the sides of the stabilization frame and extending outwardly from the side of the stabilization frame a distance, and at least one brace member. The at least one brace member includes a first bracket coupled to one side of the stabilization frame and configured to be secured to the at least one mounting member and a second bracket extending outwardly from the same side of the stabilization frame at an angle. A first end of the second bracket is coupled to a lower end of the first bracket and a second opposing end of the second bracket is configured to be secured to the at least one mounting member at a different location than the first bracket. The stabilization frame is configured to ballast the mount on a mounting structure when telecommunications equipment is secured to the mount. Telecommunications equipment mount assemblies are also described herein.
