Replacing the Left and Right Antennas
If you need to remove or replace an antenna, see the figure below.
CAUTION: Handle the connector ends of the antennas carefully. Failure to do so could degrade
notebook performance.
Handle the antenna routing metal tabs in the bottom case carefully. These tabs can be easily
broken.
1. Carefully remove both antennas from the old bottom case.
2. Route both antenna cables through the new bottom case as shown below. Make sure you leave enough
room at the cable connector end to connect to the Mini PCI card.
