Abstract
The invention concerns the devices which make it possible to connect a plug ( ) to a radio frequency circuit ( ) whilst simultaneously breaking the connection from this radio frequency circuit to an antenna circuit ( ). It consists in using the ends of the earth plane ( ) and of the antenna circuit ( ) in order to directly establish respectively contact between the external casing ( ) of the plug with the earth plane ( ) when the plug is connected, and contact between a spring connector ( ) itself connected to the radio frequency circuit ( ) and the antenna circuit ( ) when the plug is disconnected. This spring connector ( ) is held captive in a cylindrical protrusion ( ) on the support ( ) for the antenna circuit and the earth plane.
