Abstract: Presented herein are techniques for connectors, apparatuses, and system with connectors for data and power. A connector at an end of the network cable can be configured to mate with a port in a device. The connector can include a set of data pins for connecting data wires in the network cable to the port. The connector can include a set of power pins for connecting power wires in the network cable to the port. The set of power pins can carry a higher electrical power than that carried by the set of data pins. A first spacing between adjacent power pins in the set of power pins has at least a minimum distance to reduce voltage breakdown between the adjacent power pins in the set of power pin.

Abstract: A power distribution unit (PDU) includes a housing configured to be mounted into or on a rack that has a plurality of shelf positions for a variety of computing equipment, networking equipment or data storage equipment. The PDU includes power inputs. The power inputs are configured to receive one or more of: alternating current (AC) power, high voltage direct current (DC) power, single-phase fault managed power, or multi-phase fault managed power. The PDU further includes at least one fault managed power module configured to be contained in the housing, the at least one fault managed power module including a power transmitter configured to generate single-phase or multi-phase fault managed power from the AC power and/or high voltage DC power. The PDU also includes a plurality of connectors on the housing and configured to provide cable connections to one or more of the plurality of shelf positions of the rack.

Abstract: Presented herein are techniques for preventing an electrical arc upon disconnect of a network cable. A method can include monitoring a network cable connected to a device for faults at a remote location from a connector of the network cable by observing conditions on the network cable of power applied to the network cable, wherein the network cable is for sending data and power. The method can further include detecting a fault on the network cable, wherein the fault was introduced intentionally at the connector prior to disconnecting the connector from the device. The method can further include terminating power at the remote location that is sent over the network cable to prevent an electrical arc upon disconnecting the connector from the device.

Abstract: Presented herein are techniques for balancing energy usage. A method can include obtaining energy consumption patterns of a plurality of devices that consume energy in an environment from a plurality of data sources. The method can further include analyzing operational patterns of the plurality of devices that are dynamically controllable and associated with the environment to generate device data. The method can further include building and maintaining multiple domain ontologies for sustainability profiles. The method can further include developing a profile for energy consumption for at least one device of the plurality of devices, wherein the profile is based on the energy consumption patterns, the device data, and at least one sustainability profile of the multiple domain ontologies.
