COMPACT NETWORKING DEVICE FOR REMOTE STATIONS

Abstract:

A tower-mounted networking device facilitates deploying a remote station without having to build a custom station aside a radio tower. The networking device's chassis comprises a mounting bracket, which includes a curved contour for mounting the networking device on the radio tower. Also, the chassis can be resistant to weather intrusion, by not including a vent, to allow the networking device to be installed outdoors. The networking device can include a first power port coupled to an external connection line from a source external to the tower, such that the external connection line provides at least power to the networking device. The networking device can use the power to power a set of antenna mounted on the radio tower. The networking device can also relay a network connection between a pair of antennas, and/or between an antenna and a network connection to an Internet service provider.
