Each electronic device is exposed to a disinfecting wavelength of light, such as UV light, to disinfect the surface of the device.

A control circuit can monitor the exposure time and level, and is programmable to activate the UV light based on pre-set criteria. The enclosures may be stacked and provide power and network connectivity to each device while docked therein.
