A radio device comprises an antenna for transmitting and receiving radio frequency signals. The antenna comprises a radiating antenna element (201, 602, 701) and a dielectric protective casing (202, 703) attached to each other, whereby the dielectric protective casing substantially encloses the antenna element. Further the radio device comprises a protective casing (205) of the radio device for mechanically supporting the radio device and for protecting its electrical components, and a printed circuit board (203) within the protective casing for connecting the electrical components to the radio device and for forming the electrical connections between the components. The antenna is mechanically fastened to the radio device with the aid of counterpart fastening shapes (301, 302, 303, 304, 305, 306, 307, 308) located in the antenna's protective casing and in the radio device's protective casing. The antenna is electrically connected to the radio device by a connection between a certain point (201b, 201b') of the radiating antenna element and a certain point (204, 204', 402) of the radio device.
