The first antenna connection is mounted directly to the top surface of the substrate, and is configured to connect with a first antenna. The first retention mechanism is connected at a first location of the bottom surface of the substrate to provide support for the substrate at the first antenna connection when the first antenna connection is connected to the first antenna. The first location of the first retention mechanism is selected to be directly below the first antenna connection.

Abstract: A method for managing wireless data communication links includes establishing first and second wireless data communication links between a host system and a wireless display adapter. The first wireless data communication link is associated with a high data rate of data traffic between the host system and the wireless display adapter, and the second wireless data communication link is associated with a low data rate of data traffic. The method further includes determining that information is to be transmitted between the host system and the wireless display adapter using the low data rate, turning off a first data radio associated with the first wireless data communication link, and transmitting the information over the second wireless data communication link.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a first subsystem having a first data module configured to provide a first signal, a second data module configured to provide a second signal, the first signal and the second signal are different types of signals, and a first aggregator unit coupled to the first data module and the second data module, and a second subsystem coupled to the first aggregator unit via a first aggregated signal line. The first aggregator unit receives the first signal from the first data module and the second signal from the second data module, aggregates, based upon a first aggregation algorithm, the first and second signals to create a first aggregated signal. The first aggregation algorithm aggregates the first signal and the second signal based on a specific type of each signal and provides the first aggregated signal to the second subsystem via the first aggregated signal line.

The outer LCD layer of the thin panel display device having a camera zone through which the aperture of the camera receives light and a processor or set of processors determines camera usage a software application operating on the information handling system and coordinating camera operation and thin panel display device operation through the outer LCD layer in accordance with the camera usage by modifying a display refresh rate at the outer LCD layer camera zone.

Abstract: An information handling system accepts a storage device in a bay that interfaces through a standardized connector having a first set of pins, such as a SATA connector. The standardized connector has a second set of pins inserted within the standardized footprint to support communication by devices other the storage device. For example, a SATA connect shares one or more of its standardized pins with a USB connector so that one common connector within an information handling system bay supports multiple types of devices.

Abstract: An information handling system provides power to a peripheral through a peripheral interface, such as a USB interface, by communicating power availability with a primary set of power parameters through a data link and communicating power availability with a secondary set of power parameters through a power link. If a peripheral device has the capability to draw power at the second power parameters, it does so while monitoring for a fold back of host power that indicates power is not available at the second power parameters.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for implementing a persistent battery system shutdown condition when a battery pack voltage level drops below a predetermined minimum acceptable operating voltage threshold that is above a pre-determined permanent failure operating voltage threshold at which the battery pack is permanently disabled. The disclosed systems and methods may be implemented such that shutdown portion of the power-consuming components of the information handling system are not allowed to be restarted until external power has been first provided and applied to at least partially recharge the battery cells of the battery pack to a battery voltage level that is above the minimum acceptable operating voltage threshold and/or when sufficient external power is applied to power the information handling system and at the same time charge the battery cells of the battery pack.
