5.6 SIM Socket

A standard SIM socket is provided which accept 1.8V/3V SIM card for carrier subscription.

5.6 SIM Socket

A SMA connector is provides to allow connection of a passive or active antenna. For optimum performance the antenna assembly 
connected to this device is required to have the following characteristics:

• 

Specified designed operation in the following  bands :

 

• 

GSM 850/900 MHz

 

• 

GSM 1800./1900 MHz

• 

The characteristic impedance on any antenna or cable assembly attached to this device should be 50R

• 

The antenna must be capable of handling a minimum of 2W output power

• 

The VSWR should be less than 3:1 to avoid damage to the device.

5.7.1 Antenna placement

When in service the antenna should be placed away from electronic devices or other antennas. The recommended minimum distance 
between adjacent antennas, operating on a similar radio band, is at least 50cm. 

5.7.2 Antenna connection cable

If a cable is used to connect the device to the antenna this cable must be a high quality low loss cable. The cable and any connectors used 
should have 50R impedance.

Pin No.
