For the antenna connector, the SX-560 module uses a Hirose U.FL-R-SMT (CL331-0471-0-01) ultra
miniature coaxial receptacle. Note that you must use a special cable to meet FCC regulatory
requirements (see next section).
The mating plugs are:
Hirose part number: U.FL-LP-066

SX-560-1701 Retaining Bracket (Optional)
For some SX-560-1701 applications, it is desirable to secure the radio card so that it does not
accidentally eject from the SDIO card cage. Silex offers the 150-00192-100 retaining bracket as an
optional accessory for these applications. This clip, which also reduces electromagnetic interference
(EMI), is installed as shown in the picture below.

Regulatory Approval Requirements (SX-560-1701)
The SX-SDWAG used in the SX-560-1701 has FCC and IC Modular Approval. This allows you to use the
SX-560 in your device without any further agency testing for intentional radiation compliance (FCC Part
15 Subparts C & E and IC RSS-210). This Limited Modular Approval has the following requirements:
