Abstract

See full text

A universal serial bus (USB) sensor bar and a device manager are configured to intelligently monitor one or more patch panels. The USB sensor bar comprises an array of sensors configured to read identification data from memory devices affixed to respective cables plugged into ports of a patch panel. The USB sensor bar converts the identification data to a USB protocol and sends the data to a device manager over a USB bus. The device manager uses the received information to document a network architecture, generate web-based interfaces that render configuration and status information for the network, and generate alarms or notifications in response to detection of defined network conditions.
