Abstract
A high-frequency module includes port electrodes defining external connection terminals provided on a multilayer body including dielectric layers. A first port electrode is connected to an antenna. A plurality of port electrodes other than the first port electrode are respectively connected to communication systems supporting respective frequency bands. The first port electrode is connected to the plurality of other port electrodes through a plurality of switch elements. A first group of the plurality of switch elements and a second group of the plurality of switch elements are not connected to each other within a switch circuit and are connectable to each other through a common terminal outside of the switch circuit. As a result, a high-frequency module that allows a design change to be made using the same switch circuit without changing the switch circuit is provided.
