Pin#1 of the 80-pin connector is at the bottom left (marked by the light-gray circle) in the above
drawing. Pin#2 is at the bottom right.
The right-angle MMCX connector is mounted on the bottom side of the board and protrudes 1.2mm
beyond the edge of the PCB.

Antenna Connector
Type:
MMCX, right angle
DC voltage:
As provided by pin#14 of the 80-pin connector
Gain range:
15 dB to 50 dB (antenna gain minus cable losses)
Never inject a DC voltage into the antenna connector as it may damage the receiver. For instance,
when using a splitter to distribute the antenna signal to several receivers, make sure that no more than
one output of the splitter passes DC. Use DC-blocks otherwise.
