1. A multi modem communications device providing electronic communication across a plurality of radios, the device comprising:
a central housing chassis adapted to provide an electrical counterpoise for the electronic communication, the central housing chassis comprising material that provides radio frequency shielding; and
a plurality of wide-band antennas, each coupled to the central housing chassis, each corresponding to a modem of a plurality of modems provided by the multi modem communications device, and each operating on similar frequency bands;
wherein each of the wide-band antennas that correspond to a modem of the plurality of modems are positioned on the central housing chassis or configured on the central housing chassis to physically block, using a horizon established by a shape of the central housing chassis as a radio frequency shield, line of sight between other wide-band antennas of the plurality of wide-band antennas positioned in a near field region and coupled to the central housing chassis being used for the modem of the plurality of modems, reducing cross-coupling loading or energy loss as between the plurality of wide-band antennas.
