To meet the normal operating temperature range requirements, it is necessary to ensure effective thermal dissipation,
e.g., by adding passive or active heat sinks, heat pipes, vapor chambers. Within the temperature range of -10 °C to +55 °C
,
the mentioned RF performance margins higher than 3GPP specifications can be guaranteed. When temperature goes
beyond temperature range of -10 °C to 55 °C, a few RF performances of module may be slightly off 3GPP specifications.

To meet the extended operating temperature range requirements, it is necessary to ensure effective thermal dissipation,
e.g., by adding passive or active heat sinks, heat pipes, vapor chambers. Within this range, the module remains the ability
to establish and maintain functions such as SMS, without any unrecoverable malfunction. Radio spectrum and radio
network are not influenced, while one or more specifications, such as P
out
, may undergo a reduction in value, exceeding the
specified tolerances of 3GPP. When the temperature returns to the normal operating temperature level, the module will
meet 3GPP specifications again.
