Abstract: Exemplary arrangements relate to a housing part (100) for an electronic terminal such as a cell phone. The housing part is comprised of carbon fiber reinforced plastic and includes at least one conductive device such as a threaded metallic insert (110) configured for galvanic connection to the electronics that are housed within a housing of the terminal. In an exemplary arrangement the housing part includes a groove (120). The groove is filled with a conductive mass (130) which provides a galvanic connection to the exposed carbon fibers within the groove. The carbon fibers may thereby be in galvanic connection with the ground of the electronics within the housing part, which helps to suppress electronic noise which may be produced by the electronics.

Abstract: A housing component for a mobile terminal such as a smartphone or a laptop computer, includes a carbon fiber reinforced plastic body that is operative to shield components within the housing from electromagnetic radiation. The housing component further includes at least one antenna window. The at least one antenna window is configured to be associated with at least one antenna of the terminal. The at least one antenna window enables the at least one antenna to transmit and receive electromagnetic signals without being shielded or interfering with the operation of the terminal circuitry within the housing.
