Electronic device port

1. An electronic device comprising:

a housing defining an aperture;

a membrane extending across the aperture; and

a non-metallic woven support mesh disposed parallel to the membrane and extending across the aperture;

wherein:

the support mesh defines a plurality of perforations; and

a micro-texture feature disposed on a surface of the support mesh facing the membrane, the micro-texture feature disposed between adjacent perforations of the plurality of perforations and within the aperture.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the membrane is acoustically transparent.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the membrane is air permeable and water impermeable.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the support mesh comprises a monofilament string mesh.

5. The electronic device of claim 4 , wherein the support mesh comprises a fabric.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the support mesh is less flexible than the membrane.

7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein:

the support mesh is a first support mesh;

the electronic device further comprises a second support mesh extending across the aperture parallel to the membrane; and

the membrane is disposed between the first support mesh and the second support mesh.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the second support mesh comprises a cosmetic mesh.

9. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the second support mesh comprises a non-metallic woven material.

10. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the cosmetic mesh comprises a metal or a plastic.

11. An electronic device port, comprising:

an aperture defined by a housing;

a support mesh;

a cosmetic mesh spaced apart from the support mesh; and

a water impermeable membrane occluding the aperture and disposed between the support mesh and the cosmetic mesh;

wherein a surface of the support mesh facing the water impermeable membrane comprises a dimple protruding toward the water impermeable membrane and aligned with the aperture.

12. The electronic device port of claim 11 , wherein the support mesh comprises a flexible woven mesh.

13. The electronic device port of claim 11 , wherein the support mesh includes a rigid perforated mesh comprising metal or plastic.

14. The electronic device port of claim 11 , wherein the contact area reduction feature comprises a dimple.

15. The electronic device port of claim 11 , wherein the contact area reduction feature comprises a micro-texture surface feature.

16. An electronic port assembly defining a port, the assembly comprising:

a first woven support mesh extending across the port;

a second woven support mesh extending across the port and spaced apart from the support mesh; and

a water impermeable membrane extending between the first woven support mesh and the second woven support mesh;

wherein a surface of the first woven support mesh facing the water impermeable membrane comprises a plurality of perforations and at least one of a micro-groove, a micro-notch, or a micro-valley disposed between adjacent perforations of the plurality of perforations and extending into a thickness of the first woven support mesh and aligned with the port and configured to reduce a contact area between the first woven support mesh and the water impermeable membrane.

17. The electronic port assembly of claim 16 , wherein the water impermeable membrane is more flexible than the first woven support mesh and the second woven support mesh.

18. The electronic port assembly of claim 16 , wherein the second woven support mesh is a cosmetic mesh.

19. The electronic port assembly of claim 16 , further comprising a mesh cap over-molded around a periphery of the first woven support mesh.
