1)
SIMO is a smart antenna technology that uses a single antenna at the transmitter side and multiple
(two for EM06 series) antennas at the receiver side to improve Rx performance.

As per 3GPP specification.
6.7. ESD Characteristics
EM06 series are not protected against electrostatic discharge (ESD) in general. Consequently, they are
subject to ESD handling precautions that typically apply to ESD sensitive components. Proper ESD
handling and packaging procedures must be applied throughout the processing, handling and operation
of any application that incorporates the modules.
The following table shows the electrostatic discharge characteristics of the modules.

6.8. Thermal Dissipation
EM06 series modules are designed to work over an extended temperature range. In order to achieve
optimal performance while working under extended temperatures or extreme conditions (such as with
maximum power or data rate, etc.) for a long time, it is strongly recommended to add a thermal pad or
other thermally conductive compounds between the module and the main PCB for thermal dissipation.
