A system for transmitting power without wires or with no more than one connection, wherein communication is provided between an unlimited number of electronic devices, or to connect these devices to an unlimited number networks that are located externally to the system to thereby enable high speed voice and data communications over a single resonant connection At least one transmitter and one receiver are utilized, which may have the same or different configurations, such that an induced oscillating electπc current, which occurs at the resonant frequency of a transmitter, induces a standing wave The standing wave is tuned and “tapped” by a receiver having a coil or set of plates and receivers that are tuned to oscillate at the same frequency or one of its harmonics and, thus, absorb an electrical current and/or signals at the receiver
