At GSM900 and GSM850 band, the module is a class 4 device, so the module’s output power should not exceed
33dBm, and at the maximum power level, the output power tolerance should not exceed +/-2dB under normal
condition and +/-2.5dB under extreme condition.
At DCS1800 and PCS1900 band, the module is a class 1 device, so the module’s output power should not exceed
30dBm, and at the maximum power level, the output power tolerance should not exceed +/-2dB under normal
condition and +/-2.5dB under extreme condition.

5. Antenna interface
There are three antenna ports for SIM800H, GSM antenna port named RF_ANT, The RF interface of the three
antenna ports has an impedance of 50Ω.The maximum gain of the GSM antenna gain should not exceed 3dBi
considering the SAR radio. No antenna gain may be used that would exceed the 2W EIRP power limit in
1900MHz band.
The input impendence of the antenna should be 50Ω, and the VSWR should be less than 2.
It is recommended that the GSM antenna.
The isolations of the three antenna should be bigger than 30db
