Abstract

An electronic device according to certain embodiments includes a first circuit board, a second circuit board including a communication module, a first antenna module disposed to be separate from the communication module, a flexible cable including a first connector connected to the first circuit board, a second connector connected to the first antenna module, a first extension extending between the first connector and the second connector, and a first receptacle disposed in the first extension, and a first coaxial cable including a third connector connected to the communication module, a fourth connector connected to the first receptacle, and a second extension extending between the third connector and the fourth connector.

Claims (26)

1. An electronic device comprising:

a first circuit board;

a second circuit board including a communication module;

a first antenna module disposed to be separate from the communication module;

a flexible cable including a first connector connected to the first circuit board, a second connector connected to the first antenna module, a first extension connecting the first connector and the second connector, and a first receptacle disposed in the first extension; and

a first coaxial cable including a third connector connected to the communication module, a fourth connector connected to the first receptacle, and a second extension connecting the third connector and the fourth connector.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first extension has a flat portion, and the first receptacle is disposed on the flat face.

3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the first extension further comprises a bent portion between the first receptacle and the second connector.

4. The electronic device of claim 2 , further comprising: a reinforcing portion configured to reinforce the flat portion.

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the flexible cable further comprises a second receptacle disposed to be offset from the first receptacle in the first extension, and

the electronic device further comprising:

a second coaxial cable comprising a fifth connector connected to the communication module, a sixth connector connected to the second receptacle, and a third extension connecting the fifth connector and the sixth connector.

6. The electronic device of claim 5 , further comprising:

a second antenna module disposed to be separate from the communication module; and

a compatible cable comprising a seventh connector connected to the communication module, an eighth connector connected to the second antenna module, and a fourth extension connecting the seventh connector and the eighth connector,

wherein the second circuit board includes a first antenna port to which the third connector is connected, a second antenna port to which the fifth connector is connected, and a third antenna port to which the seventh connector is connected.

7. The electronic device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a housing including a first side area and a second side area opposite to the first side area,

wherein the communication module is disposed in the first side area, and the first antenna module is disposed in the second side area.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , further comprising:

a second antenna module disposed in the first side area,

wherein the first antenna module is disposed to be separate from the communication module by a first distance, and the second antenna module is disposed to be separate from the communication module by a second distance less than the first distance.

9. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the first side area comprises a first upper area and a first lower area, and the second side area comprises a second upper area and a second lower area,

wherein the first antenna module is disposed in the second lower area and the second antenna module is disposed in the first upper area, or the first antenna module is disposed in the second upper area and the second antenna module is disposed in the first lower area.

10. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the housing has side surfaces defining at least a portion of the second side area, and the first antenna module is tilted with respect to at least a portion of the side surfaces.

11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the side surfaces further comprise a first side surface, a second side surface opposite to the first side surface, and a third side surface between the first side surface and the second side surface.
