3: RF Specifications
The EM7411 includes three RF connectors for use with host-supplied antennas:
Main RF connectorTx/Rx path
GNSS RF connectorDedicated GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, and QZSS
Auxiliary RF connectorDiversity, MIMO, GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou. Galileo, and
QZSS
The module does not have integrated antennas.

RF Connections
When attaching antennas to the module:
Use RF plug connectors that are compatible with the following RF receptacle
connectors: Foxconn (KK12011-02-7H), Longwell (911-002-0006R), Speedtech
(C87P101-00001-H), Murata (MM4829-2702RA4 (HSC)), IPEX (20449-001E
(MHF4)).
Match coaxial connections between the module and the antenna to 50 .
Minimize RF cable losses to the antenna; the recommended maximum cable loss for
antenna cabling is 0.5 dB.
To ensure best thermal performance, use the mounting hole (if possible) to attach
(ground) the device to a metal chassis.
Note: If the antenna connection is shorted or open, the modem will not sustain permanent damage.
Shielding
The module is fully shielded to protect against EMI and must not be removed.
