  • Patent number: 7841899
    Abstract: An apparatus including a conductive sleeve including an outer-conductive surface and an inner passageway that extends from a first end at least partially to a second end. The passageway is adapted to receive and shield a device that provides at least one of a radio frequency path and an electrical current path. In one embodiment, movable flanges at an end of the sleeve are used for coupling the outer-conductive surface of the sleeve to a ground connection. In one embodiment, the sleeve may further be used to interconnect a pair of RF structures with ground connections at each end of the sleeve and with signal connections to the device at each end.

  • Patent number: 7789360
    Abstract: A pole mount bracket is provided. The bracket includes at least one extruded portion, a pole mounting portion and a band. The at least one extruded portion has an engaging surface. The engaging surface has a plurality of grooves that allow the extruded portion to bend to the form of a pole. The pole mounting portion is connected to the at least one extruded portion. Moreover, the pole mounting portion is further configured to be selectively coupled to a device. The band is configured to deform the at least one extruded portion about the pole to attach the pole mount bracket to the pole.
