COMMUNICATION MODULES
First Claim
1. A communication module, the module comprising:
- at least one transceiver;
a filter;
a power amplifier in communication with the at least one transceiver and filter, wherein the at least one transceiver, filter and power amplifier are tuned and calibrated to work with each other;
an enclosure configured to physically retain the at least one transceiver, filter and power amplifier;
an internal interface configured to interface connections between the at least one transceiver and the power amplifier; and
an external interface configured to provided external connections to the module, the external interface being coupled to the internal interface.

Abstract
A communication module is provided. The module includes at least one transceiver, a filter, a power amplifier, an enclosure, an internal interface and an external interface. The power amplifier is in communication with the at least one transceiver and filter. Moreover, the at least one transceiver, filter and power amplifier are tuned and calibrated to work with each other. The enclosure is configured to physically retain the at least one transceiver, filter and power amplifier. The internal interface is configured to interface connections between the at least one transceiver and the power amplifier and the external interface configured to provided external connections to the module. In addition, the external interface is coupled to the internal interface.
