==MULTIPORTS AND OTHER DEVICES HAVING KEYED CONNECTION PORTS AND SECURING FEATURES AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240019642 titled 'MULTIPORTS AND OTHER DEVICES HAVING KEYED CONNECTION PORTS AND SECURING FEATURES AND METHODS OF MAKING THE SAME

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a device called a multiport, which has connection ports with securing features. The device includes a shell, at least one connection port, at least one securing feature passageway, and at least one securing feature. The connection port has an optical connector opening that extends from the outer surface of the multiport to a cavity within it, creating a connection port passageway. The connection port passageway has a keying portion. The securing feature is associated with the connection port passageway and is located within a portion of the securing feature passageway.

* The device is a multiport with connection ports and securing features.
* The connection ports have optical connector openings that extend from the outer surface to the cavity of the multiport.
* The connection port passageway includes a keying portion.
* The securing feature is associated with the connection port passageway and is located within a portion of the securing feature passageway.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Telecommunications industry: The multiport device can be used in telecommunications equipment to provide secure and reliable connections between optical fibers.
* Data centers: The device can be used in data centers to connect multiple devices and ensure secure and efficient data transmission.
* Networking equipment: The multiport can be incorporated into networking equipment to enable high-speed and secure data transfer between devices.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Secure connections: The securing features and passageways ensure that the connection ports are securely attached and prevent accidental disconnections.
* Efficient data transmission: The optical connector openings and keying portions help in aligning and connecting optical fibers accurately, leading to efficient data transmission.
* Versatile connectivity: The multiport device allows for the connection of multiple devices, enabling flexible and scalable network configurations.

Benefits of this technology:

* Enhanced security: The securing features provide a reliable and secure connection, minimizing the risk of data loss or interruption.
* Improved efficiency: The accurate alignment and connection of optical fibers result in efficient data transmission with minimal signal loss.
* Versatility: The multiport device can be used in various industries and applications, providing a versatile solution for connectivity needs.
