Abstract

In one embodiment, a wireless transceiver and a network interface, such as a wireless location determination device or a laptop (302) with wireless capability and an Ethernet port, is coupled to a network switch port (304) via the network interface. A request for location data is sent via the wireless transceiver, and location data is provided to the wireless transceiver, enabling the location of the Ethernet outlet to which the switch port is connected to be determined.
