ABSTRACT:
An access point device and access point system support wireless and/or wired communications. The access point includes temperature control functionality that is adapted to control/moderate the temperature within an access point. The temperature control functionality may operate to control the transmit power, the throughput or other operating parameters associated with the access point. The temperature control functionality may also actuate a cooling mechanism, e.g., a fan, associated with the access point. Load balancing may also be employed to reduce heat generation associated with an access point. The temperature control functionality may reside at the access point, e.g., a “fat” access point, or may reside at the wireless controller, e.g., a “thin” access point. Error voltage signals may also be generated and transmitted to a TCVCXO to control or moderate temperature conditions and heat generation.
