Connector for connecting antenna and electronic device having the same

Abstract

An electronic device with an antenna-connectable connector is provided. The electronic device includes a wireless communication circuit configured to receive wireless communication data and a universal serial bus (USB) type-C connector including a housing forming an outer surface of the connector, an opening formed in at least a portion of the outer surface to allow a header-type external connector to be coupled to the connector in a forward direction or a reverse direction, and a board disposed inside the opening, the board having a first surface on which a plurality of first pins corresponding to the forward direction are arranged and a second surface on which a plurality of second pins corresponding to the reverse direction are arranged, wherein the plurality of first pins may include one or more first ground pins and one or more first signal pins, wherein the plurality of second pins include one or more second ground pins and one or more second signal pins, wherein the one or more first signal pins may include at least one first signal pin selectively connectable with the wireless communication circuit and a designated function circuit, and wherein the one or more second signal pins include at least one second signal pin corresponding to the reverse direction of the at least one first signal pin, the at least one second signal pin selectively connectable with the designated function circuit and the wireless communication circuit.
