Title:
MULTI-PORT CABLING SYSTEM AND METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006015129
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A multi-port cabling system for use in installing cable to an equipment rack or enclosure or within an equipment room or data center includes a cabling assembly comprising at least one connector (102) having a plurality of ports and at least one cable (104) operatively connected to the plurality of ports. The at least one cable (104) terminates internally within the connector head (102) to operatively couple the cable to the plurality of ports. The system further includes a mounting bracket (106). The mounting bracket (106) and the connector head (102) are each configured for tool-less attachment of one or more cabling assemblies to the bracket (106). The mounting bracket (106) is further configured to removably mount to an equipment rack or enclosure, and/or to a wall, to thereby install one or more cables (104). The cabling assembly and the cabling system help to eliminate on­site cable termination and testing during installation of cables to rack-mounted equipment.
