Hazardous condition detector with integral wireless connectivity infrastructure device

摘要

A hazardous condition detector device that includes wireless communication capability for expanding the connectivity range of a wireless network. The hazardous condition detector includes a unitary housing that includes both a wireless communication device and a hazardous condition detection circuit. The combined hazardous condition detector and wireless infrastructure device is mounted within a building in an optimal location to enhance the interconnectivity range of the wireless network. The hazardous condition detection circuit is operable to sense the presence of a hazardous condition and generate an alarm signal. The hazardous condition detector forms part of a combined hazardous condition detection and wireless computer network infrastructure that both enhances the wireless connectivity with a building and satisfies building code-required hazardous condition detection parameters.
