  • Page 6: Overview

    The module allows easy design migration and end-product enhancements. By integrating all necessary support and RF front end circuitry onto a small 33 mm x 22 mm module, Avnet has reduced the design time for implementing Sphere-based solutions. Developers can leverage the module’s wireless regulatory certifications (pending) for their end product, saving considerable certification costs and testing time.
