But if the antenna passes the usb port then it doesn’t really matter.

A friend of mine had a $2500 gaming laptop that couldn’t use WiFi when he used an external display. He ended up having to use two separate dongles, one for DisplayPort and another for Ethernet. It worked, but was pretty dumb. In the end, though, I was happy that at least he was using a wired connection.

Ideally it passes by shielded. Or better yet, shield both.
