Specifications subject to change

The host device must provide adequate ESD protection on digital circuits and 
antenna ports as detailed in the following table.

Note:  The level of protection required depends on your application.

Mechanical Integration

Attention should be paid to:

Antenna cable integration (bending, length, position, etc)

Pads of the AirPrime WP7504 to be soldered to the ground plane

Ensuring proper board layout

Providing sufficient space around the module for heat dissipation

Table 4-1:  ESD specifications

1. ESD specifications are preliminary, subject to change.
2. ESD protection is highly recommended at the point where the UIM contacts are exposed, 

and for any other signals that would be subjected to ESD by the user.
