Abstract: An outdoor equipment cabinet includes a housing with a first door for accessing an equipment compartment within the housing. A battery compartment is located proximate a bottom of the housing. First and second air vents are located in an upper half of the cabinet. At least one fan moves air from the first vent, down to the battery compartment and then up and out of the second vent. In some embodiments, the first door includes the second vent, and a dual wall construction leading to a heat exchanger mounted to the first door. Air passes through the dual wall construction of the first door and through the heat exchanger to regulate an air temperature within the equipment compartment, and then passes out the second vent. The first vent may be provided in a second door which also includes a dual wall construction to guide incoming air to the battery compartment.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a system for providing both wireline and wireless connections to a wireline interface includes a first wireline interface, a second wireline interface, a wireless interface, and a switch coupled to the first wireline interface, the second wireline interface, and the wireless interface. The switch can selectively couple the first wireline interface to the second wireline interface to allow communication between the first and second wireline interfaces. The switch can further selectively couple the first wireline interface to the wireless interface to allow communication between the first wireline interface and the wireless interface.
