  • Patent number: 12185429
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices relating to a wireless network device configured for adjustable positioning are described herein. In an example, a network device comprises a body and a bendable element configured to carry electrical power to the body and components therein. The body houses an antenna and transceiver configured for wireless communication. The bendable element, attached to the body of the network device, is configured for adjustable positioning such that a position of the bendable element is substantially maintained when the positioning force is removed. A facing of the antenna within the body may be based on the positioning of the bendable element.

  • Patent number: 11729938
    Abstract: A housing may comprise a first surface comprising one or more ventilation openings and a second surface comprising one or more ventilation openings. The one or more ventilation openings of the first surface may be located in a recessed groove of the first surface. The second surface may be substantially perpendicular to the first surface. The housing may enable air to flow through the one or more ventilation openings of the first surface and the one or more ventilation openings of the second surface to direct heat away from the one or more internal components of the housing. The arrangement of the one or more ventilation openings may enable one or more housings to be stacked on top of each other without impeding air flow through the one or more ventilation openings of the first surface and/or the one or more ventilation openings of the second surface.
