ABSTRACT:
A communication device (10) for receiving or transmitting radiofrequency (rf) signals has a transceiver (12), signal processing circuitry (14) and a signal switch assembly (16). Assembly (16) has a jack (18), an antenna matching circuit (20) and a bypass circuit (22). Rf signals are provided to transceiver (12) through antenna matching circuit (20) when an antenna is connected to jack (18). However, antenna matching circuit (20) is bypassed so that the rf signals are provided to transceiver (12) through bypass circuit (22) when a connector from a signal cable is connected to jack (18). Bypass circuit (22) is actuated as such when a ground member of such a connector electrically connects a ground contact (26) and one other contact (28) within jack (18). Ground contact (26) and other contact (28) are annularly disposed around a signal contact (24) of jack (18).
