Original Abstract Submitted
A first data connector for communicating data with a second data connector includes a data communication interface including adjacent radiofrequency antenna elements, wherein a plurality of the adjacent radiofrequency antenna elements forms a radiofrequency data antenna array and another radiofrequency antenna element of the adjacent radiofrequency antenna elements forms a radiofrequency control channel antenna element, each radiofrequency antenna element of the radiofrequency data antenna array being configured to communicate a subchannel signal of the data to a corresponding radiofrequency data antenna element of a data communication interface of the second data connector bidirectionally. The radiofrequency control channel antenna element is configured to manage data communications through the radiofrequency data antenna array. An attachment interface is positioned on the first data connector and configured to removably attach the first data connector to the second data connector.
