Chapter 6 – Application Considerations Chapter 6 – Application Considerations General Guidelines for the Use of the SocketModem Hardware and RF • Ground plane: Multi-Tech recommends having a common ground plane for analog, digital, and RF grounds. • ESD protection on serial link, … • Possible spurious emission radiated by the application to the RF receiver in the receiver band. The Antenna The antenna sub-system and integration in the application is a major issue.
Appendix A – Safety Appendix A – Safety Safety Precautions IMPORTANT! FOR THE EFFICIENT AND SAFE OPERATION OF YOUR CDMA INTEGRATED MODEM READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USE. RF Safety General Your SocketModem is based on the CDMA standard for cellular technology. Your modem is actually a low power radio transmitter and receiver. It sends out and receives radio frequency energy.
Appendix A – Safety General Safety Driving Check the laws and the regulations regarding the use of cellular devices in the area where you have to drive as you must comply with these laws and regulations. When using your modem while driving, please give full attention to driving. Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require. Electronic Devices Most electronic equipment, for example in hospitals and motor vehicles, is shielded from RF energy.
Appendix A – Safety General Safety Standards THIS WIRELESS SOCKETMODEM COMPLIES WITH ALL APPLICABLE RF SAFETY STANDARDS.
Appendix B – Sources for Peripheral Devices Appendix B – Sources for Peripheral Devices CDMA Antenna The integrated modem antenna connector is a MMCX connector. The MMCX connector incorporates a 'Snap On' latching action in order to make the connection easier with an excellent RF performance. An additional advantage is its small physical size, which is 50% of the standard MCX connector. This type of connector is suitable for the standard ranges of flexible and semi-rigid cables.
