An RF cable-less interconnect arrangement couples a diplexer to a radio transceiver
by providing each of the transceiver and the diplexer by means of respective pairs
of RF transmission and receiver channel connectors. The two sets of connectors
are supported at a prescribed spatial separation for blind-mating RF connectivity
for either of two orientations and translation (insertion) of the diplexer into
the radio. Eliminating lossy and relatively fragile RF cable, that would otherwise
occupy space within the radio's housing, and require installation by a skilled
technician during assembly of the radio, allows the customer to easily change the
radio's frequency plan by simply removing, rotating and reinserting the diplexer.
