20080311767Surface mount electrical connector having insulated pin - A surface mount header is shown which may be mounted to a surface of a printed circuit board, where pins project away from the board. Alternatively, the surface mount header may be connected to a surface of a printed circuit board with the pins projecting downwardly through an opening in the board. Insulative sleeves surround the pins in order to protect the pins from contact with conductive paths within the board.12-18-2008

20080245648ELECTRICAL SWITCHING APPARATUS AND TRIP ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY THEREFOR - A trip actuator assembly is provided for a circuit breaker including a housing having a mounting surface, separable contacts enclosed by the housing, and an operating mechanism structured to open and close the separable contacts. The trip actuator assembly includes a trip actuator cooperable with the operating mechanism, and a planar member having first and second ends, first and second edges, and an aperture. The trip actuator is at least partially disposed within the aperture and is further disposed between the planar member and the mounting surface of the housing. The first edge of the planar member is removably coupled to the mounting surface, thereby removably coupling the trip actuator to the housing. The circuit breaker may include an accessory tray which is insertable on and is removable from the mounting surface. When inserted, the accessory tray abuts the body of the trip actuator enclosure further securing the trip actuator.10-09-2008
20090173604ELECTRICAL SWITCHING APPARATUS AND TOOL THEREFOR - A tool is provided to manipulate an electrical switching apparatus, such as a circuit breaker, with respect to a housing structure. The circuit breaker has a mechanical interface. The tool includes an actuating mechanism having a plurality of segments and joints, which movably connect the segments. One segment is engageable with the mechanical interface of the circuit breaker. Another segment comprises a handle portion structured to be gripped by a user. The actuating mechanism is movable between a first position in which the segments are substantially parallel with respect to one another, and a second position in which adjacent segments are substantially perpendicular to each other. When disposed in the first position, the tool is stowable in an opening of the circuit breaker. When disposed in the second position, the tool is operable to move the circuit breaker in a predetermined manner with respect to the housing structure.07-09-2009

20110185055SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CORRELATING NETWORK IDENTITIES AND ADDRESSES - The system and method for correlating network identities and addresses described herein may include a log correlation engine distributed on a network that identifies relationships between certain network identities and Internet Protocol (IP) and Ethernet addresses in the network. In particular, the log correlation engine may analyze various event logs that describe activity in a network to learn relationships between network identities and network addresses and generate alerts in response to discovering changes in the learned relationships. For example, the log correlation engine may identify authentication events described in the logs to map network identities to IP addresses, and may further analyze the logs to map the IP addresses to Ethernet addresses. Thus, the log correlation engine may discover new and changed relationships between the network identities, the IP addresses, and the Ethernet addresses.07-28-2011
20110231935SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PASSIVELY IDENTIFYING ENCRYPTED AND INTERACTIVE NETWORK SESSIONS - The system and method for passively identifying encrypted and interactive network sessions described herein may distribute a passive vulnerability scanner in a network, wherein the passive vulnerability scanner may observe traffic travelling across the network and reconstruct a network session from the observed traffic. The passive vulnerability scanner may then analyze the reconstructed network session to determine whether the session was encrypted or interactive (e.g., based on randomization, packet timing characteristics, or other qualities measured for the session). Thus, the passive vulnerability scanner may monitor the network in real-time to detect any devices in the network that run encrypted or interactive services or otherwise participate in encrypted or interactive sessions, wherein detecting encrypted and interactive sessions in the network may be used to manage changes and potential vulnerabilities in the network.09-22-2011
