Abstract
An antenna for a wireless terminal is disclosed with an antenna bushing configured to provide enhanced antenna performance. The antenna bushing includes an antenna guide portion having an upper tubular portion supporting a radiator at substantially a point of extraction from the wireless terminal. A bushing fastening portion is disposed adjacent the upper tubular portion. A signal contact point of the antenna bushing transfers an antenna signal to/from an RF circuit point of the wireless terminal. At least a portion of the signal contact point is adjacent the upper tubular portion. The configuration may reduce deleterious effects of EMI from other circuit components of the wireless terminal.
