A fiber optic receptacle and plug assembly includes a fiber optic receptacle adapted to be mounted within a connector port of a network connection terminal and a fiber optic plug mounted upon an end of a fiber optic cable, wherein the fiber optic receptacle and the fiber optic plug comprise complimentary alignment and keying features that allow the fiber optic receptacle to receive only a fiber optic plug of like ferrule configuration. The fiber optic receptacle includes an alignment sleeve insert operable for receiving and optically connecting at least one receptacle ferrule and at least one opposing plug ferrule. The receptacle is suitable for use in enclosures requiring a minimal receptacle penetration depth, wherein the fiber optic receptacle comprises a shoulder that is secured against an inner wall of the enclosure to provide strain relief against cable-pulling forces of up to about 600 lbs.

The novel method and system for classifying packets through the use of filters combines heuristic tree search with the use of filter buckets. This provides high performance and reasonable storage requirement, even when applied to large number of filters (from 4K to 1 million). In addition, the novel method can adapt to the input packet distribution by taking into account the relative filter usage. The capability of employing a large number of filters in a packet classifciation system is useful in providing value-added services, such as security, quality of service (QoS), load balancing, and traffic accounting.

A method for forming an isolation filled trench (25) in a silicon layer (21) of an SOI structure (20). The trench (25) is relieved adjacent its open mouth (30) in order to displace the commencement of bridging of the trench (25) with the filling material, to a level (36) well below a first surface (27) of the silicon layer (21) for in turn displacing voids (35) from the open mouth (30) into the trench (25) below the level (36). The trench may be relieved by forming tapered portions (40) in the side wells (29) adjacent the open mouth (30), and / or by relieving one or more lining layers (32) in the trench (25) adjacent the open mouth (30) to form tapered portion (52) and (53). Instead of relieving the trench (25) by tapering the side walls (29) relieving recesses may be formed into the first surface (27) of the silicon layer (21) adjacent the open mouth (30). By relieving the trench (25) or one or more of the lining layers (32) adjacent the open mouth (30) the commencement of bridging of the trench with the filling material is displaced downwardly to a level (36), which displaces voids formed in the trench below the level (36). By sufficiently relieving the trench (25) and / or lining layers (32) adjacent the open mouth to a sufficient depth the formation of voids in the trench may be completely avoided.

An ultrathin optical panel, and a method of producing an ultrathin optical panel, are disclosed, including stacking a plurality of glass sheets, which sheets may be coated with a transparent cladding substance or may be uncoated, fastening together the plurality of stacked coated glass sheets using an epoxy or ultraviolet adhesive, applying uniform pressure to the stack, curing the stack, sawing the stack to form an inlet face on a side of the stack and an outlet face on an opposed side of the stack, bonding a coupler to the inlet face of the stack, and fastening the stack, having the coupler bonded thereto, within a rectangular housing having an open front which is aligned with the outlet face, the rectangular housing having therein a light generator which is optically aligned with the coupler. The light generator is preferably placed parallel to and proximate with the inlet face, thereby allowing for a reduction in the depth of the housing.

The present invention relates to a method and computer system device for applying a plurality of rules to data packets within a network computer system. A filter rule decision tree is updated by adding or deleting a rule. If deleting a filter rule then the decision tree is provided to a network data plane processor with an incremental delete of the filter rule. If adding a filter rule then either providing an incremental insertion of the filter rule to the decision tree or rebuilding the first decision tree into a second decision tree responsive to comparing a parameter to a threshold. In one embodiment the parameter and thresholds relate to depth values of the tree filter rule chained branches. In another the parameter and thresholds relate to a total count of rule additions since a building of the relevant tree.

A rotary wrenching tool used on polygonal nuts, bolts and screws is disclosed. More particularly, the wrenching tool is a single piece rotary wrenching tool with a uniform interior having no moving parts and consisting of six or twelve inwardly projecting lobes of the same size that enable the wrench or socket to exert pressure on the flats of hexagonal objects away from the corners. This invention further relates to a duplex wrench operable on hexagonal fasteners measured by the metric, inch, or both systems. Within a defined range in one wrench, each wrench secures hexagonal objects measured by both inch and metric systems.
