Title: Fault management system for a communications network
Inventor: MAXWELL RICHARD
IPC: H04M3/30
Filed: 2001-12-17
Abstract: There is described a method of operating a fault management system for an access network which forms part of a communications network. In the access network, terminating lines in the form of pairs of copper wires extend from a local switch (10) through a series of nodes to terminal equipment provided for user of the network. The fault management system includes a test head (104) and an access network management system (102). Each night, the test head (104) performs a series of tests on each of the terminating lines. The results of the tests are transmitted to the access network management (102). The test results are then analysed with respect of a set of parameter to identify characteristics that would indicate that a fault is likely to occur on the associated circuit within a predetermined period e.g. 1 year. Further analysis can then be carried out to establish the probability of the fault actually occurring and/or whether the potential fault analysed is going to occur in either the underground or the over-ground part of the network. Further analysis determines the relative costs of repair for circuits or network elements in which faults or potential faults have been identified.

Abstract: Systems and devices relating to the mounting of video display units (VDUs) in vehicles. A mounting system includes a mounting plate that is attached to the floor of the rear passenger area of the vehicle. A hollow shaft is attached to the mounting plate and is vertically positioned relative to the floor. At the top of the shaft, a VDU enclosure is mounted by inserting a portion of the enclosure in the shaft. The enclosure is rigid and has a transparent viewing panel which corresponds to the screen of the terminal contained in the enclosure. The enclosure may be rotated about the shaft and the shaft can pivot abut the plate. This allows the VDU to be positioned to the optimal position for viewing by any of the rear passengers.  Also, the VDU may be moved away from either the rear of the front passengers as the need arises.  In case of a vehicular accident, the pivotable nature of the shaft allows the terminal unit to not be a safety hazard.
