Heatsinking
The M8T operates at up to 10% transmit duty cycle at ambient temperatures up to 50°C.
For duty cycles up to 50%, the module requires additional heat sinking.
If an external heat sink presses against the “GND PAD” are of the PCB, the RF power
transistor will run cooler, and allow higher duty cycles.

Mounting Holes
6 mounting holes are provided on the module. For best RF performance, the M8T module
should be mounted to the system ground, using metal stand-offs.
