Zusammenfassung:	An information handling system to wirelessly transmit and receive data may include a base chassis including a processor, a memory, and a wireless adapater; a metal C-cover of the base chassis to house a speaker grill, the speaker grill covering a speaker to emit audio waves; the speaker grill formed within the C-cover, the speaker grill including a slot formed around a portion of a perimeter of the speaker grill that physically separates the portion of the speaker grill as a peninsula in the C-cover; a millimeter wave antenna element coupled to a back side of the speaker grill; and a sub-6 GHz antenna element to transmit via the slot formed around the perimeter of the speaker grill; wherein the speaker grill has a mesh pattern of grill openings sized to be transparent to millimeter wave frequencies emitted by the millimeter wave antenna element.
