ABSTRACT:
A distribution network for coupling wireless signals between an internetworking device and a plurality of remotely located access points to provide wireless service within a geographic coverage area composed of microcells. The distribution network makes use of available transport cabling. Examples of such wireless signals include wireless metropolitan area network signals and mobile broadband wireless network signals.
