Morphology
The phrase is compositionally built from the degree adverb 'extremely' modifying the adjective 'high' and the noun 'frequency', so a learner who knows the parts will understand it means a very high rate/very high frequency. Although the precise numeric radio-band definition (30–300 GHz) is technical, that domain-specific detail does not make the basic meaning unpredictable from the constituents.
Etymology
Extremely high frequency comes from describing radio waves that happen 'very fast', like tiny ripples close together on water. That picture shows why it means waves that repeat many times per second and can carry a lot of data, so they are used for things like satellites and radar.
