The xPico evaluation boards (XPW100100K-01 and XPCW1002100K ) includes a bracket for
mounting the U.FL to Reverse Polarity SMA RF cable included with the kit. Follow the
procedure below when installing the antenna cable. The same procedure applies when using
the PCB strip antenna, with the exception that the swivel antenna does not need to be
connected to the RF cable.
1. Attach the U.FL cable to the antenna prior to installing the xPico Wi-Fi module on the J1
socket.
2. Attach the plastic mounting clip to the module.
3. Install the module/SMT module on carrier board into the J1 socket.
4. Install the external antenna to the SMA end of the RF cable.
Note:
Install or remove the antenna connections only while the module is powered off.
