Abstract

A mobile wireless communications device includes a housing and at least one circuit board. Radio frequency (RF) circuitry is carried by the circuit board and includes a transceiver. A processor is carried by the at least one circuit board and operative with the RF circuitry. An antenna is mounted within the housing. An antenna contact is secured on the at least one circuit board and operatively connects the RF circuitry and engages the antenna at an antenna contact point. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding is positioned at the antenna contact point and reduces RF inductance effects.
