A transceiver system having an RF front-end operatively connected to two separate non-50 ohm antennas for separately providing transmission/reception paths for 1 GHz band and for 2 GHz band. A switching module is operatively connected to each antenna for mode and frequency-range selection within each band. Each switching module has a plurality of switching elements connected to a plurality of signal paths. Matching is separately and independently provided for each signal path. The matching can be achieved by using distributed elements or lumped elements arranged in shunt or series in order to widen the bandwidth. An electrostatic discharge protection circuit is provided between the antenna feed point and the switching module. The protective circuit can also be used as a discrete matching network that can be optimized depending on the phone mechanics and dimensions.
