6 Antenna Connector

The wireless modem’s antenna connector allows transmission of the radio frequency
(RF) signals from the wireless modem to an external customer supplied antenna. The
connector is a micro-miniature coaxial MMCX through hole mounted socket.

A number of suitable MMCX type, mating plugs are available from the following
manufacturers:

Amphenol

Suhner

IMS Connector Systems

The nominal impedance of the antenna interface is 50 ohms.

To bypass the MMCX connector, a pair of PCB landing pads are
available on the underside of the module. You can probe these pads or
solder a coaxial cable directly to them. Sony Ericsson; however, cannot
guarantee absolute performance when connecting to the antenna in
this way due to the attenuation such a connection could potentially
cause. When connecting in this way, proceed with care.
