Antenna Installation Guidelines
•
Install the antenna in a place covered by the LTE signal with CAT-M1 support.
•
Antenna must not be installed inside metal cases
•
Antenna must not be installed according Antenna manufacturer instructions
•
Antenna integration should optimize the Radiation Efficiency. Efficiency values >
50% are recommended on all frequency bands
•
Antenna integration should not perturb the radiation pattern described in Antenna
manufacturer documentation.
•
It is preferable to get an omnidirectional radiation pattern to
•
Antenna Gain must not exceed values indicated in regulatory requirements, where
applicable, in order to meet related EIRP limitations. Typical antenna Gain in most
M2M applications does not exceed 2dBi
•
If the device antenna is located farther than 20cm from the human body and there
are no co-located transmitter then the Telit FCC/IC approvals can be re-used by the
end product
•
If the device antenna is located closer than 20cm from the human body or there are
co-located transmitter then the additional FCC/IC testing may be required for the
end product (Telit FCC/IC approvals cannot be reused)
