Embodiment Construction

[0021] The active system and tagging method of the present invention are described in relation to a telecommunications system and the various components that make up the system. Such telecommunications systems include components in the form of various types of network devices, including associated optical and electrical links in data center applications. Accordingly, it is intended that the term "component" as used herein be interpreted broadly to include, for example, a device, device, tool, device, connector, structure, element, component, port, cable, cable portion, connector, module, Parts, units, mechanisms, gears, sockets, sockets, plugs, racks, frames, shelves, cabinets, wires, wire cables, optical fibers, optical cables, and the like that make up a telecommunications system and play a role in determining the configuration of the system, and will be derived from The source tag benefits from, in general, the entirety of all conceivable items. Here, "active label" and si...

Abstract

A radio-frequency identification-(RFID)-based active labeling system for labeling components of a telecommunication system. The active labeling system includes an electronically addressable active label device that forms and displays indicia that remains static and visible when the device is unpowered. A RFID tag is operably connected to the device and is configured to receive a RF signal that contains component information, and to harvest power from the RF signal. The RFID tag then transfers the component information and power to active label device to enable it to form and display indicia representative of the component information. A database unit is operably connected or is contained directly in the RF reader and contains the component information on a computer-readable medium.

Description

[0001] Cross-references for applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Application 12 / 218,371, filed July 15,2008. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to telecommunication systems such as those used to form telecommunication networks, and more particularly to active tags for components of these systems using radio frequency identification (RFID). Background technique [0004] Optical fiber telecommunication systems in public and private networks are used to provide high-bandwidth voice data and video services for business and home use. As the number of fiber optic cables used in private and public networks increases, managing the large number of interconnections in the central office and in the field becomes increasingly complex. For example, in the central office of a telecommunications network, there may be thousands or hundreds of fiber optic connections depending on the size of the network. Connections are made to ports o...
