Abstract
An information handling system include a processor; a memory; a power management unit; a wireless interface adapter for transceiving wireless communications via RF waves having a third wireless protocol subsystem operatively and selectively couplable to one of a first antenna and a second antenna via an RF switch to initiate OOB communications with a network; and an antenna controller operatively coupled to the RF switch configured to receive radio telemetry data indicating radio connection status information of the first wireless protocol subsystem, the second wireless protocol subsystem, and the third wireless protocol subsystem; and determine assignment of one of the first antenna and second antenna to be a shared antenna and switched to the third wireless protocol subsystem based on the operational status of the first wireless protocol subsystem, second wireless protocol subsystem, and third wireless protocol subsystem.
