15RemarksEN 301 489-3'Network access point' means: A network access point in a data network is a fixed terrestrial short range device that acts as a connection point for the other short range devices in the data network to service platforms located outside of that data network.
The term data network refers to several short range devices, including the network access point, as network components and to the wireless connections between them.
