Appeal 2007-0636
Application 10/351,016
The Prior Art Relied upon
7. Louwagie discloses a DSX line card (10) for insertion in a
telecommunication chassis (16), the card (10) having an electric circuit (30)
for interfacing two sets of ports (16, 18) via their respective connector
contacts. (Abstract, col. 2, ll. 49-50; col. 3, ll. 25-38).
8. As depicted in Figure 4, Louwagie teaches that the line card (10)
includes a first plurality of resistors (80b, 81b) that respectively terminate tip
and ring spring contacts (80 and 62, 81 and 63) positioned to engage a plug
inserted within monitor 20, while another plurality of resistors ( 80b’, 81b’)
respectively terminate tip and ring spring contacts (80’ and 62’, 81’ and 63’)
to engage a plug inserted within monitor 20’. (col. 4, ll.15-30).
9. As depicted in Figure 4, Louwagie teaches a line card (10) having a
plurality of jumpers designated by a plurality of paths (e.g., 62 and 40, 63
and 42) coupled across the electrical card connectors. (col. 4, ll.48-54).
10. Dewey discloses a plug jack card for normally closed contacts in a
telecommunications network (col. 1, ll. 40-48).
11. As depicted in Figure 1, Dewey teaches a frame (12) that includes a
chassis (16) and a plurality of connector assemblies (18). (col. 2, ll. 45-50).
12. Dewey teaches that the chassis (16) is made up of side walls (20) with
side flanges (28) mounted thereon, a forward top and bottom panels (24, 26).
(col. 2, ll. 52-58).
13. As shown in Figures 4, 4A, 12, 13, 18, 19, Dewey teaches a circuit
card for insertion into chassis (16), where the circuit card has a plurality of
termination resistors connecting ring and tip contacts to engage a plug
inserted within a monitor. (col. 3, ll. 53-66).
