    摘要: A cellular phone apparatus that is designed to mount at least one cellular phone and also alert an individual when any one of the cellular phones mounted within the apparatus receives a call. One embodiment of the apparatus can hold one cellular phones, while another embodiment of the apparatus can hold three cellular phones. The phones are preferably placed into “vibrate” mode when being placed within the apparatus. When a phone mounted within the apparatus receives a call, the vibration of that cellular phone will activate the apparatus, causing the apparatus to make a ringing sound and alert an individual of the incoming call.

    摘要: A communications system (30) enables two communications devices (10, 12) to communicate with each other over an extended distance using a limited range communication protocol, such as the IrDA or Bluetooth protocol. The communications system includes a pair of repeaters (32, 34), each having a protocol stack (38) that includes a portion of the limited range communications protocol. The repeaters communicate with each other over an extended range communications channel (36) such as the PSTN, while each communications device utilizes its native, limited range communications technique to communicate with an associated repeater. Thus, each communications device can readily communicate with another like device using its native protocol over a distance otherwise beyond the range of that technique.

    摘要: A secure communication channel is established between a portable computing device and a fixed public network outlet. Infrared beaming is employed wherein the IR beam is confined to an optical fiber placed between the IR beaming ports of the portable device and the fixed outlet. A portable computing device such as a PDA or a laptop PC has an infrared beaming port capable of bidirectional serial communication. A fiber optic system includes an optical fiber, a retractable spool for retaining the optical fiber, a fiber mount for mounting a first end of the optical fiber in alignment with the infrared beaming port of the portable computing device, and a terminator at a second end of the optical fiber. A public network outlet is provided in a fixed location and has an infrared data port in communication with an optical fiber connector adapted to receive the terminator. The infrared data port is in bidirectional serial communication with the infrared beaming port in order to authenticate the portable computing device and to provide public network services in response to the authentication.
