Abstract: A cellular private branch exchange for facilitating cellular communication for a first plurality of mobile station units, which includes a first base station subsystem for communicating with a first and a second mobile station unit of the first plurality of mobile station units on respectively a first and a second cellular bearer data channel. The cellular private branch exchange further includes a cellular private branch exchange unit coupled to the first base station subsystem. In turn, the cellular private branch exchange unit includes a private mobile-services switching center for providing mobility management for the first plurality of mobile station units, the private mobile-services switching center representing a first cross-connect node capable of cross-connecting the first bearer data channel with the second bearer data channel for calls between the first and the second mobile station units.

Abstract: A split dove-tail gasket channel structure includes a fir structure having a first external surface and a first edge plane substantially parallel to the first external surface, a first surface substantially perpendicular to the first edge plane, a second surface adjacent to the first surface and at an acute angle to the first edge plane, and a third surface adjacent to the second surface and at an acute angle to the first edge plane. A second structure has a second external surface and a second edge plane substantially parallel to the second external surface, a fourth surface substantially perpendicular to the second edge plane, a fifth surface adjacent to the fourth surface and at an acute angle to the second edge plane, and a sixth surface adjacent to the fifth surface and at an acute angle to the second edge plane.

Abstract: An apparatus for cross-connecting an end-to-end connection between an origination mobile station and a destination mobile station in a network of cross-connect nodes, which includes a call control circuit. The call control circuit includes a first circuit portion for receiving call control information from the origination mobile station and the destination mobile station and a second circuit portion for determining, responsive to receiving the call control information from the origination mobile station and the destination mobile station, an optimum end-to-end connection for cross-connecting the end-to-end connection through the network of cross-connect nodes. The optimum end-to-end connection represents a computed shortest communication route between the origination mobile station and the destination mobile station that satisfies resource requirements for cross-connecting the end-to-end connection.
