Abstract: A network management method and system for managing multiple routers under a single user log-in. The network management system implements the method, which includes authenticating a user log-in to the system, displaying a listing of routers accessible from the system by the user, and receiving a user selection of a router from the listing of routers. The method further includes displaying a listing of commands implementable by the selected router, receiving a user selection of a command for the selected router, and implementing the selected command on the selected router, without requiring the user log-in to the selected router. In particular, the selected command is implemented using router credentials retrieved from a database of the network management system. Additionally, the system implements aggregation of data allowances for user devices into a data pool, against which device data usage is allocated.

Abstract: A router includes a first communications port, a second communications port, and a processor that is configured to transmit data via at least one of the first communications port or the second communications port.

Abstract: A smart antenna apparatus includes a casing, which supports an omnidirectional antenna array; a plurality of transceivers electrically connected with the antenna array; and a format converter and booster device electrically connected between the plurality of transceivers and a network port, said format converter and booster device comprising a multiplexer/de-multiplexer circuit for encoding plural USB signals from the plurality of transceivers to the network port and for decoding plural USB signals from the network port to the plurality of transceivers.

Abstract: A multi-core cable terminating housing includes an upper case and a lower case. The upper case has a first plurality of grooves; the lower case has a second plurality of grooves; the grooves and the cases are shaped for mating with each other. Mating of the upper case with the lower case defines a cable plenum and a cable egress, and joins the first plurality of grooves with the second plurality of grooves to define a plurality of collars that open in parallel alignment from the cable plenum toward a front side of the housing opposite the cable egress, for receiving cable terminating connectors.
