The invention relates to an assembly for radio communication containing all the electronic components necessary for radio transmission/reception, which can alternatively be connected to a device for voice communication and to a device for data communication. The device for voice communication with the assembly (which, according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, is implemented on a reduced dimension PCMCIA integrated circuit card) plugged therein, has more or less the same dimension and the same weight of a usual cellular phone device. When radio data transmission is desired the PCMCIA integrated circuit card is to be unplugged from the telephone handset and plugged into a data processing device properly arranged. In this way the data processing device is provided with the capability of radio transmitting and receiving data.
