TYPICAL APPLICATION

6.1 Antenna layout requirements

1. For the installation position of the module on the motherboard, the following two methods are recommended:
   Solution 1: Put the module on the edge of the motherboard, and the antenna area extends out of the edge of the motherboard.
   Option 2: Put the module on the edge of the motherboard, and hollow out an area on the edge of the motherboard at the antenna position. In order to meet the performance of the onboard antenna, it is forbidden to prevent metal devices around the antenna and keep away from high-frequency devices.

REFLOW SOLDERING CONDITIONS

1. Heating method: conventional convection or IR convection;
2. Allowable reflow times: 2 times, based on the following ramped heating conditions;
3. Maximum temperature: 250°C.
   

FCC warning statements:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Caution: Any changes or modifications to this device not explicitly approved by the manufacturer could void your authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
The device has been evaluated to meet general RF exposure requirements This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance cm between the radiator & your body.
