Abstract
A coaxial connection assembly includes a first spring pin fixed to a first component to be connected, such as an antenna which may be a patch antenna. The assembly also includes a first contact on a circuit board for connecting to the first component by way of the first spring pin. The assembly also includes a front end module (FEM) cover for spacing apart the first component and the circuit board. The FEM cover defines a first channel through which the first spring pin extends. The FEM cover is formed from a conductive material, and the first channel contains a dielectric medium or substance.
