Abstract: A key coded power connector and a system and method for making key coded power connections are disclosed. A power connector such as a power adapter connector is configured with either a visual keying system, a physical keying system, or both. The physical keying system prevents a user from connecting a host device to a connector of the power source which does not support that host device. The visual keying system provides the user with an early indication that the particular device is not supported by a power source. The user can visually compare a marking key on the host device with the making key on the power connector and determine whether or not the power source is capable of outputting sufficient power to operate the device. The visual and physical keying systems prevents a user from improperly connecting a host device to a power source which does not support that device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method for collecting and analyzing data of a wireless communication network including “micro” or “pico” wireless networks. The system collects wireless network performance data utilizing a monitoring device, correlates this information with the monitoring device's location and transmits this time-correlated information to a display device. The system tracks the monitoring device in real-time and provides precise location information of the monitoring device. The system has a built-in self-correction mechanism in a navigational module to verify a test operator's location. In addition, the system also includes an analysis device for post-test processing of the collected cellular radiotelephone network's performance information. The system is portable with long-lasting battery power.
