Cost Allocation Mechanism

A device that converts a circular motion into a linear motion. It is usually fixed on a shaft or axle. As the shaft turns, the cam pushes against an object (a cam follower) to make it move back and forth in a straight line. For example: the up and down motion of the ‘stamper’ in a stamping battery the up and down motion in the seesaw, or the side t [..]

The Common Interface (CI) is the slot on a satellite receiver into which a conditional access module (CAM) may be inserted for satellite television. Receivers normally have two common interfaces. A receiver with a common interface allows the user to access encrypted television broadcasts as opposed to free-to-air (FTA) channels.
