Connectors: Antenna
The Digi Connect Wi-ME is available with 1 RP-SMA connector. The antenna is
connected to the module with a reverse polarity SMA connector (sub-miniature size A).
The antenna only fits on the module one way to ensure a proper connection. Another option
for both signal reception and design flexibility is to use a "pig tail" cable (Digi part number
DC-ANT-EC) to separate the antenna from the module. This allows the module to fit inside
your product but the antenna to be placed outside the device.
Module LEDs
The module has two LEDs that are located near the upper corners of the Ethernet port (see
the following figure). The following table describes the LEDs.
Note
The LEDs are the same for a module with or without a JTAG connector.
