Page 5: Introduction
1: Introduction The Sierra Wireless EM7511 Embedded Module is an M.2 module that provides LTE, UMTS, and GNSS connectivity for notebook, ultrabook, tablet computers, and M2M applications over several radio frequency bands. Accessories A hardware development kit is available for AirPrime M.2 modules. The kit contains hardware components for evaluating and developing with the module, including: •... -
Page 6: Power
2: Power Power Supply The host provides power to the EM7511 through multiple power and ground pins. The host must provide safe and continuous power (via battery or a regulated power supply) at all times; the module does not have an independent power supply, or protection circuits to guard against electrical issues. - Page 7 Power Table 2-1: Module Power States (Continued) State Details • Host keeps module powered off by asserting Full_Card_Power_Off# (signal pulled low or left floating) • Module draws minimal current Disconnected • Host power source is disconnected from the module and all voltages associated with the ...

Page 10: Antenna And Cabling
Product Technical Specification Antenna and Cabling When selecting the antenna and cable, it is critical to RF performance to match antenna gain and cable loss. Choosing the Correct Antenna and Cabling When matching antennas and cabling: • The antenna (and associated circuitry) should have a nominal impedance of 50 ... -
Page 11: Ground Connection
RF Specifications Ground Connection When connecting the module to system ground: • Prevent noise leakage by establishing a very good ground connection to the module through the host connector. • Connect to system ground using the module’s mounting hole. • Minimize ground noise leakage into the RF. -
Page 12: Device-Generated Rf Interference
Product Technical Specification Proximity of host electronics to the antenna in wireless devices can contribute to decreased Rx performance. Components that are most likely to cause this include: • Microprocessor and memory • Display panel and display drivers • Switching-mode power supplies Device-generated RF Interference The module can cause interference with other devices. - Page 13 To determine the extent of any receiver performance desensitization due to self- generated noise in the host device, over-the-air (OTA) or radiated testing is required. This testing can be performed by Sierra Wireless or you can use your own OTA test chamber for in-house testing.

Page 15: Important Compliance Information For United States And Canada
Regulatory Compliance and Industry Certifications In an aircraft, the EM7511 module MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the EM7511 module can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the cellular network. - Page 16 Mobile carriers often have limits on total radiated power (TRP), which requires an efficient antenna. The end product with an embedded module must output sufficient power to meet the TRP requirement but not too much to exceed FCC/IC's EIRP limit. If you need assistance in meeting this requirement, please contact Sierra Wireless. Rev Apr.18...
- Page 17 Regulatory Compliance and Industry Certifications 4. A label must be affixed to the outside of the end product into which the EM7511 module is incorporated, with a statement similar to the following: · This device contains FCC ID: N7NEM75S Contains transmitter module IC: 2417C-EM75S where 2417C-EM75S is the module’s certification number.
