Radio communications module having a test terminal to which a test probe can be connected, and electronic apparatus comprising a radio communications module

A radio communications module to be electrically connected to a system board incorporated in an electronic apparatus, said module comprising:

• a circuit board which processes radio signals and which has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, said first surface opposing the system board;
• a connection section which is arranged on the first surface of the circuit board and which is to be electrically connected to the system board;
• and
• a connector which is arranged on the second surface of the circuit board and to which one of an antenna cable extending from an antenna element for achieving radio communication and a test probe is to be connected removably.

An electronic apparatus comprising:

• a housing;
• a system board which is incorporated in the housing and having a mounting surface;
• and
• a radio communications module mounted on the mounting surface of the system board, said radio communications module including:
• a circuit board which processes radio signals and which has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, said first surface opposing the system board;
• a connection section which is arranged on the first surface of the circuit board and which is to be electrically connected to the system board;
• an antenna connector which is arranged on one of the first surface and the second surface of the circuit board and to which an antenna cable extending from an antenna element for achieving radio communication is to be electrically connected;
• and
• a test terminal which is arranged on the second surface of the circuit board so as to measure a characteristic of the circuit board.

An electronic apparatus comprising:

• a housing which has an outer wall having a through hole;
• a system board which is incorporated in the housing and which has a mounting surface that opposes the outer wall;
• a radio communications module which is mounted on the mounting surface of the system board, said module including:
• a circuit board which processes radio signals and which has a first surface and a second surface, said first surface opposing the mounting surface, and said second surface being opposite to the first surface and opposing the outer wall;
• a connection section which is arranged on the first surface of the circuit board and which is to be electrically connected to the system board;
• an antenna connector which is arranged on one of the first surface and second surface of the circuit board and to which an antenna cable extending from an antenna element for achieving radio communication is to be electrically connected;
• and
• a test terminal which is arranged on the second surface of the circuit board, which is aligned with the through hole of the outer wall and to which a test probe inserted into the housing via the through hole is to be connected removably.
