Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems and methods for providing fixed wireless access to user devices located within structures. A structure, such as a multi-unit structure, may comprise one or more consolidated access points configured to wirelessly communicate with both a radio access network and one or more fixed wireless access devices that are coupled to an exterior window or wall of the structure. Fixed wireless access devices may have a portion mounted on the exterior of an exterior window or wall and comprise components to wirelessly communicate with the consolidated access point or radio access network. The fixed wireless access device may also have an interior portion mounted on the interior that routes signals to user devices within the structure and wirelessly powers the exterior portion.
