<p>An interchangeable and modular antenna (10) in a wireless communications device (30) that is configured for RF wireless communications based on one of a plurality of different predetermined RF communication protocols. The wireless communications device (30) allows multiple antenna modules (10) to be provided for being selected for use in the communications device (30). The communications device (30) includes a radio module (34) and a main circuit board (32) having an electrical connector (40). One or more antenna modules (10) are releasably mounted on the main circuit board (32) of the radio module (34) using a mating RF connector (24) that engages the radio module's electrical connector (40) to enable a cable-free and interchangeable connection of the radio module (34) with the antenna module (10).</p> |
