Abstract: A 5G wireless access point, includes: an outdoor unit comprising a 5G modem and a wireless power receive unit, and configured to be affixed to an exterior surface of a building component of a building; an indoor unit comprising a wireless power transmit unit and configured to be affixed to an interior surface of the building component at a location opposite the outdoor unit on an interior surface of the building component; and a Wi-Fi router communicatively coupled to the 5G modem and configured to transmit or receive information wirelessly with a device within the building. The wireless power transmit unit of the indoor unit may provide power to operate the outdoor unit via a wireless link between the wireless power transmit unit and the wireless power receive unit.

Abstract: Stackable electronic devices are disclosed which can be stacked onto each other in such a manner that electrical contacts with one device mate with electronic contacts on other devices either above or below the device to create an electrical connection between the devices in the stack. Magnets or latches can be used to secure the stacked devices together. The contacts, as well as status indicators, are arranged in common locations on the devices and the devices can be capable of automatically configuring addressing, device capabilities, and wireless communication paths.

Abstract: In a general frequency reuse data communications system including infrastructure 100 and a subscriber terminal 115 a method of acquiring a channel includes: fast scanning 199 a predetermined list of data channels to identify a fast scanned channel; intermediate scanning 200, when the fast scanned channel is not identified, the predetermined list of channels to identify an intermediate scanned channel where a channel from the predetermined list of channels is evaluated for a first time period; and slow scanning 500, when the intermediate scanned channel is not identified, the predetermined list of channels to identify a slow scanned channel where a channel from the predetermined list of channels is evaluated for a second time period.
