The media converter includes an electro-optical transceiver configured to convert an optical signal into an electrical signal and vice-versa. The electro-optical transceiver includes an optical signal port connectable to a plastic optical fiber, the optical signal port for sending and receiving the optical signal along the plastic optical fiber; and an electrical signal port for sending and receiving the electrical signal. The media converter also includes a plurality of means for electrically conveying the electrical signal. A switch is in electrical communication with the electrical signal port of the electro-optical transceiver and with the plurality of means for electrically conveying the electrical signal, and is configured to direct the electrical signal from the electro-optical transceiver to any one of the means for electrically conveying the electrical signal and vice-versa, thereby facilitating bi-directional communication. The media converter can also have a telephonic network access port connectable to a telephone cable, which includes a pair of power carrying wires for carrying electrical power. A power supply is in electrical communication with the switch and the electro-optical transceiver, and power supply wiring electrically couples the telephonic network access port to the power supply for powering the media converter by transmitting power from the power carrying wires to the power supply when the telephone cable is coupled to the network access port.

20100283996 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISTRIBUTED MEASUREMENT AND COMPENSATION OF CHROMATIC DISPERSION IN AN OPTICAL NETWORK - A method and apparatus for distributed measurement of chromatic dispersion in an optical network is disclosed. The network comprises optical switching nodes interconnected by optical links. An optical link may comprise multiple spans, each span ending in a transport module which comprises signal-processing components. At least one optical switching node has a probing signal generator transmitting an optical probing signal along a selected path in the network. Probing-signal detectors placed at selected transport modules determine chromatic-dispersion values and send results to a processing unit which determines appropriate placement of compensators or appropriate adjustments of compensators placed along the path. A preferred probing signal has the form of wavelength modulated optical carrier which is further intensity modulated by a periodic, preferably sinusoidal, probing tone. Variation in the phase-shift of the probing tone corresponding to variation of the wavelength of the optical probing signal determines chromatic-dispersion characteristics for different spans of the path. | 11-11-2010 |

20130330467 | METHOD OF APPLYING A THIN SPRAY-ON LINER AND ROBOTIC APPLICATOR THEREFOR - A method and system for applying a liner material to a contoured surface, such as an exposed rock face in an underground hard rock mine, is disclosed. Locations of a plurality of spatially distributed surface grid points on the contoured surface may be detected so as to generate a representative topographical profile of the contoured surface. Based on the plurality of surface grid points, a spray path for a liner application device configured to emit a spray of the liner material may be determined. In some cases, the spray path may have a trajectory that follows the topographical profile of the contoured surface offset therefrom within a spray range of the liner application device. Liner material may then be sprayed onto the contoured surface while controlling the liner application device to undertake at least one pass of the spray path. | 12-12-2013 |

20080209216 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATED AUTHENTICATION OF A DEVICE TO A MANAGEMENT NODE OF A COMPUTER NETWORK - A first computer-based device is authenticated at a second computer-based device communicatively coupled thereto through use of a unique identifier and an encrypted token, each received from the first device. Following the authentication, configuration information for the first device is sent from the second device to the first device and the first device authorized to join a network that includes the second device. Further, permissions related to the network may be granted to the first device. | 08-28-2008 |
20090132777 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROTECTING CUSTOMER SECRETS DURING VENDOR TROUBLESHOOTING - Systems, methods, and computer products for protecting information during troubleshooting are provided. A dumping mechanism includes marking at least one of a plurality of memory regions in the computer-readable medium as non-dumpable, initiating a core dump, determining which memory regions of the plurality regions are non-dumpable, and dumping the contents only of memory regions not marked as non-dumpable. | 05-21-2009 |
20120158815 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING WEB OBJECTS UNWORTHY OF BEING CACHED - A caching device is configured to determine whether an object received or currently stored at the caching device should be (or continue to be) cached at the caching device, even if the object is otherwise cacheable. If so, the object is cached (or retained) at the caching device, otherwise, it is not. The determination as to whether or not the object should be cached or, if already cached, retained at the caching device may be made on the basis of a worthiness determination which evaluates the object on the basis of one or more parameters or attributes of the object, which worthiness may be one part of an overall value determination for the object. | 06-21-2012 |
20120198038 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISTRIBUTING HEURISTICS TO NETWORK INTERMEDIARY DEVICES - A policy distribution server provides, on a subscription basis, policy updates to effect desired behaviors of network intermediary devices. The policy updates may specify caching policies, and may in some instances, include instructions for data collection by the network intermediary devices. Data collected in accordance with such instructions may be used to inform future policy updates distributed to the network intermediary devices. | 08-02-2012 |

20100154771 | AIR-FLOW-CONTROLLING REAR HOUSING MEMBER - An oxygen flow controlling rear housing member for use in a burner comprises a main body portion with a first oxygen inlet. An annular oxygen gathering chamber is in fluid communication with the first oxygen inlet. An annular wall divides the annular oxygen gathering chamber and an annular oxygen-flow mixing chamber. A first oxygen flow passageway extends between the annular oxygen gathering chamber and the annular oxygen-flow mixing chamber, and has a first height that is a portion of the height of the annular wall. A second oxygen flow passageway extends between the annular oxygen gathering chamber and the annular oxygen-flow mixing chamber, and has a second height that is a portion of the height of the annular wall. The height of the first oxygen flow passageway is greater than the height of the second oxygen flow passageway. | 06-24-2010 |
20100167222 | FUEL NOZZLE FOR USE IN A BURNER - A fuel nozzle for use in a burner comprises a main body having an inlet end and an outlet end and defining a longitudinal axis. A fuel passageway has a fuel receiving inlet, and a fuel emitting outlet for delivering fuel to a mixing chamber of the burner. A first air flow channel having an inlet, and an outlet disposed adjacent the fuel emitting outlet for delivering air to the mixing chamber. The portion of the first air flow channel adjacent the outlet is oriented obliquely to the longitudinal axis. A second air flow channel has an inlet, and an outlet disposed adjacent the fuel emitting outlet for delivering air to the mixing chamber. The first air flow channel and the second air flow channel generally surround the fuel passageway, and are disposed on the exterior of the main body. | 07-01-2010 |
