    2247 Antenna RF Interface 2.11 The modules have one RF interfaces over a standard UFL connectors (Hirose U. FL-R- SMT) with a characteristic impedance of 50Ω. The RF port (J1) supports both Tx and Rx, providing the antenna interface. Electrical Characteristics 2.12 Stressing the device above one or more of the ratings listed in the Absolute Maximum Rating section may cause permanent damage.
