Mesh network radio devices with housings having millimeter wave radios detachably positioned at different locations, the housings having a connection with a fastener for removable coupling with a pole housing a cellular radio

An apparatus for wireless communication in a mesh network, comprising:

• a processor;
• memory in electronic communication with the processor;
• a first radio device comprising:
• a housing having a lower surface, the housing including a radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC);
• a plurality of millimeter wave (mmW) radios in electronic communication with the processor via the RFIC, the plurality of mmW radios detachably positioned at different locations on the housing of the first radio device, each mmW radio of the plurality of mmW radios configured to establish a mmW connection with one or more nodes in a mesh network, including a first node;
• a connection having a fastener positioned on the lower surface of the housing of the first radio device;
• and
• wherein the first radio device is configured to be removably coupled with a pole via the connection having the fastener, the pole housing a second radio device comprising a cellular radio, the second radio device configured to be in electronic communication with the processor, via a connection to the RFIC included in the housing of the first radio device, and the cellular radio configured to establish a cellular connection with a second node in the mesh network.
