Abstract
A method for accessing an electronic circuit in an enclosure using near field induction is disclosed. The method involves attaching at least one local access port connector with an external transformer core partition to a near field induction port on an external non-conductive surface of a panel of the enclosure and generating at least one inductive field between the external transformer core partition and an internal transformer core partition. Without a direct electrical connection, the method provides for communicating with the electronic circuit through the at least one local access port connector of the panel using the at least one inductive field.
