Zusammenfassung:	A configurable wireless communications module may include a first antenna layer having one or more antenna operating at a first wireless radio band; a second antenna layer having one or more antenna operating at a second wireless radio band; and a support structure for supporting the first antenna layer and the second antenna layer in a stacked configuration. The first antenna layer and/or the second antenna layer may be divided into sectors, with a directional antenna assigned to each sector, and with each directional antenna operating on a designated channel. Antenna layers may be individually accessed and removed/inserted for ease of maintenance and enhancement of function. An optional accessory module may support additional sensors and elements beyond antennas to allow for enhanced customization based on the intended application.
