Circuits and systems to exchange subscriber identity module (SIM) information over a distance

A wireless communication system comprising:

• a first network node and a second network node;
• wherein the first network node comprising at least one subscriber identification module (SIM) socket, at least one local data port, and at least one local SIM port, wherein the at least one SIM socket is connected to corresponding local SIM port;
• wherein the second network node comprising at least one SIM card interface, at least one remote data port, and at least one remote SIM port, wherein the at least one SIM card interface is connected to corresponding remote SIM port;
• wherein the at least one local SIM port and the at least one remote SIM port are capable of being coupled to a cable;
• wherein the at least one local SIM port and the at least one remote SIM port are used for exchanging SIM card information between the at least one SIM socket and the at least one SIM card interface;
• and
• wherein the at least one local data port and the at least one remote data port are used for exchanging data packets between the first network node and the second network node.
