High-Speed Network Of Independently Linked Nodes

US Patent:
6667967, Dec 23, 2003
Filed:
Feb 9, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/500887
Inventors:
Keith R. Anderson - Springville UT
Larry G. Erdmann - Springville UT
Jock Andrews - Springville UT
Richard H. Christensen - Hurricane UT
Marcio Pugina - Orem UT

Assignee:
Omninet Capital, LLC - Beverly Hills CA
International Classification:
H04L 1256
US Classification:
370351, 370401
Abstract:
A method of operating a network is beneficially conducted on a municipality or neighborhood level. The method in disclosed embodiments comprises installing a digital communications network within a limited selected geographical region. The network is formed from a high speed backbone and a plurality of nodes branching outward from the high speed backbone. A plurality of communicating stations are connected to the network and users at each communicating station subscribe to communicate over the network. Due to the unique scope of the network, the users are related primarily by virtue of their residence in a common geographical region. The network may be installed within a public utility right of way and may be used to monitor utility usage and to bill utility users. The network is thus independent of public telephone infrastructure. The network is preferably partitioned and communications are direct from station to station without broadcasting.

Method And Apparatus For An Environmentally Hardened Ethernet Network System

US Patent:
8045565, Oct 25, 2011
Filed:
Nov 20, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/988467
Inventors:
Alma K. Schurig - Cedar Hills UT, US
Keith R. Anderson - Springville UT, US
Guy Chang - Springville UT, US
Larry G. Erdmann - Springville UT, US
Assignee:
Brookline Flolmstead LLC - Las Vegas NV
International Classification:
H04L 12/56
US Classification:
370400, 333101, 333160
Abstract:
In an environmentally hardened network, a data and power distribution cable is employed in connection with reliable end connectors, high performance physical layer transceivers clocked at a lower rate than is specified and full duplex switched packet transmission techniques between switched nodes in order to extend operational distance between network elements. In a specific embodiment, the data and power distribution cable comprises a data distribution element, a power distribution element, an optional strain distribution element, an optional hollow conduit, and an extra shield and outdoor sheath. The cable may incorporate: 1) a Gel filled outdoor UTP (CAT-5) cable; 2) end connectors of type DB-9 [D-Sub] for connection of the UTP to network equipment; 3) power transmission cable of wire gauge sufficient to carry the power required by network equipment (switches, etc) for the specific segment of the network; and optionally 4) a hollow conduit that permits installation of optical fiber before or after installation of the cable.
