Abstract: Presented herein is a corrosion inhibitor dispensing system that provides for the in-situ application of a corrosion inhibitor in order to protect internal elements of an apparatus from corrosion. In one example, an apparatus is provided that may include a housing to contain one or more electronic components. The housing includes air inflow ports configured to limit internal air from exiting the housing during a corrosion inhibitor dispensing processes, air outflow ports configured to limit external air from entering the housing during the dispensing process, and one or more fans to direct airflow for the housing. The apparatus further includes a corrosion inhibitor dispensing system that includes a dispensing container to hold a corrosion inhibitor in a non-vaporized state and includes one or more ports for dispensing the corrosion inhibitor in a vaporized state during the corrosion inhibitor dispensing processes. A controller is provided to manage the dispensing process.

Abstract: A method is performed by a host assembly including a controller, a power supply circuit, and a host connector to be connected to an optical module of a particular type among different types of optical modules respectively configured to accept different types of supply voltages. The method includes: when the optical module is connected to the host assembly, identifying a particular type of supply voltage, among the different types of the supply voltages, that the optical module is configured to accept; selecting, among different power modes available to the host assembly that are respectively compatible with the different types of the supply voltages, a particular power mode that is compatible with the particular type of the supply voltage; and operating in the particular power mode to provide the particular type of the supply voltage to the optical module.
