CHAPTER 4 ANTENNAS SMA to U.FL Cables The developer kit includes three 4.5" SMA to U.FL cables which are preinstalled on the developer board. Consult the mechanical drawings for your device to determine which antenna to connect to which U.FL connector on the device.
CHAPTER 4 ANTENNAS Antenna Diversity Antenna diversity uses two receive antennas to improve the downlink connection (cell tower to mobile). It has no effect on the uplink (mobile to cell tower). Antenna diversity is useful in environments where the signal arrives at the device after bouncing off or around buildings or other objects.
CHAPTER 4 ANTENNAS Selecting Antennas Select an antenna based on your product and application. Typically, both antennas are the same because either can be the main receive antenna. However, if the antenna connectors are too close together, use a similar antenna on a short cable for the second receive only antenna.
CHAPTER 4 ANTENNAS Host Labeling The following statements are required to be on the host label: This device contains FCC ID: {Add the FCC ID of the specific device} This device contains equipment certified under IC ID: {Add the IC ID of the specific device} For additional labeling requirements, see the product's Labeling Requirements.
CHAPTER 5 SAFETY INFORMATION Chapter 5 – Chapter 5 Safety Information Handling Precautions To avoid damage due to the accumulation of static charge, use proper precautions when handling any cellular device. Although input protection circuitry has been incorporated into the devices to minimize the effect of static build-up, use proper precautions to avoid exposure to electronic discharge during handling and mounting the device.
CHAPTER 5 SAFETY INFORMATION Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) standard. This standard allows manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from cellular device EMI. The FDA continues to monitor cellular devices for interactions with other medical devices. If harmful interference occurs, the FDA will assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.
Do not place the device alongside computer discs, credit or travel cards, or other magnetic media. The information contained on discs or cards may be affected by the device. Using accessories, such as antennas, that MultiTech has not authorized or that are not compliant with MultiTech's accessory specifications may invalidate the warranty.
