摘要:
A flexible data outlet includes a housing configured for placement in an operating area of a user, such as on a wall adjacent to a user's work space. User interface circuitry in the housing provides an interface to user equipment located in the user operating area, including a user telephone device and a user data device such as a personal computer. The user interface circuitry includes a link-layer interface to the user data device. Both wired and wireless user connections are supported. Premises interface circuitry in the housing provides an interface to premises equipment located generally outside the user operating area. The premises equipment includes data processing equipment and telephone communications equipment providing access to a public telephone network. Bridge circuitry in the housing provides communications connections between the user interface circuitry and the premises interface circuitry in a flexible manner, enabling the provision of a variety of information services to the user. An optional management processor can provide diagnostic and other information to the user via hypertext pages. The data outlet is packaged in a housing similar to the housing used for a standard telephone wall jack, and is connected to telephone wiring or other available wiring.

A self service data interface includes communications logic providing communications with a personal data device and a data infrastructure, such as the computer resources in a department or building. A processor executes a data interface management process that communicates with the data infrastructure to obtain information about available data services, where the information includes information about how the available data services are accessed. The data interface management process also communicates with the personal data device to provide the information about the available data services to the user. The information is used by the personal data device to invoke the services directly via the self service data interface. The self service interface can have multiple communications links to the personal data device, such as a wire link and a wireless link. The information from the self service data interface can be provided as a hypertext page that is accessed and handled by a browser within the personal data device.
摘要:
The performance and ease of management of wireless communications environments is improved by a mechanism that enables access points (APs) to perform automatic channel selection. A wireless network can therefore include multiple APs, each of which will automatically choose a channel such that channel usage is optimized. Furthermore, APs can perform automatic power adjustment so that multiple APs can operate on the same channel while minimizing interference with each other. Wireless stations are load balanced across APs so that user bandwidth is optimized. A movement detection scheme provides seamless roaming of stations between APs.
