Providing both wireline and wireless connections to a wireline interface
First Claim
1. A system for providing both wireline and wireless connections to a wireline interface, the system comprising:
- a first wireline interface;
a second wireline interface;
a wireless interface; and
a switch coupled to the first and second wireline and wireless interfaces, the switch being operable to selectively;
couple the first wireline interface to the second wireline interface to allow communication between the first and second wireline interfaces; and
couple the first wireline interface to the wireless interface to allow communication between the first wireline interface and the wireless interface.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a system for providing both wireline and wireless connections to a wireline interface includes a first wireline interface, a second wireline interface, a wireless interface, and a switch coupled to the first wireline interface, the second wireline interface, and the wireless interface. The switch can selectively couple the first wireline interface to the second wireline interface to allow communication between the first and second wireline interfaces. The switch can further selectively couple the first wireline interface to the wireless interface to allow communication between the first wireline interface and the wireless interface.
