Examples are disclosed that relate to connector systems, magnetic plug assemblies and methods for mating a magnetic plug assembly with a plurality of receptacles. In one example, a magnetic plug assembly comprises a moveable member comprising an aperture and one or more magnets. A plug tip extends through the aperture, and one or more biasing elements urge the moveable member and the one or more magnets toward a distal end of the plug tip, with the moveable member being moveable relative to the plug tip.

A system and method for deploying antenna modules to provide communications within selected areas are disclosed. In the preferred embodiment a base structure is deployed which may be populated with a plurality of antenna modules providing directional communication. As demand for communication services increases, antenna modules may be added to the base structure. The base structure provides for the simplified installation and replacement of antenna modules. Additionally, the base structure provides adjustment in both the horizontal (azimuthal) and vertical (elevation) planes. Multiple ones of the base structure may be deployed in order to provide an enlarged communication area and/or to provide increased communication density within a particular communication area.

A portable defibrillator having a defibrillator circuit, a body for housing a defibrillator circuit, and a hook coupled to the body is disclosed. The hook is positionable in an extended position and a retracted position. When in the extended position, the hook is poised to receive a member of an external structure, such as a gurney or hospital bed, and thereby enables the defibrillator to hang from the external structure. The body of the defibrillator may provide a deflectable member positioned to engage a depression formed in the outer surface of the hook when the hook is in the extended position, thus retaining the hook in the extending position. In a similar fashion, the deflectable member may be used to retain the hook in the retracted position. A user interface panel may be disposed on the front of the body of the defibrillator for providing information to and receiving information from a user of the defibrillator. The user interface panel is oriented on the front of the body to face at an upward angle relative to the base. Furthermore, electrical connection sites for coupling external electronic instruments to the defibrillator may also be provided. The electrical connection sites are recessed back from the front of the defibrillator and are further disposed on a panel extending outward from a side of the defibrillator. A method of suspending a portable defibrillator from an external structure by coupling a selectively positionable hook to the defibrillator and hanging the defibrillator from the external structure via the hook is also disclosed.
