A plug-in network device is disclosed. The plug-in network device can be used in association with a network management system and an infrastructure network device. The plug-in network device includes two antenna arrays, one of which is up-facing and one of which is front-facing. The plug-in network device can achieve wireless communication with the infrastructure network device via the up-facing antenna array and provide network services to wireless stations through the front-facing antenna array. The network management system can manage both the infrastructure network device and the plug-in network device.

Plug-in network device

A device with a plug attachment; a power plug extending from the plug attachment; adjustable power tongs; a fastening mechanism configured to fasten the power plug to the adjustable power tongs; a plug attachment cover operationally connected to the adjustable power tongs; electronic components coupled to the power plug through which power is provided from a power source to the electronic components, the electronic components causing the plug-in network device to function as a wireless access point (WAP).

Wireless accessing device

According to one embodiment of the invention, an apparatus comprises a heat dissipation unit, such as a heat sink, that encases wireless logic in order to completely surround such logic. When adapted as a wireless network device, a casing further encases the heat dissipation unit. The casing includes a plurality of slots that are aligned with heat-radiating elements positioned around the periphery of the heat dissipation unit to allow for cooling by convection.
