Introduction

This document describes about hardware specifications of “SX-PCEAC-DB”.

Overview

SX-PCEAC-DB is the radio module which supports Dual Band IEEE802.11ac/a/b/g/n and PCI express

1.1. This module complies with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EC(Lead Free). This module is made up

of an Chipset QCA9880-BR4A (Qualcomm Atheros) which contains a MAC/BBP, 2.4GHz RF front end

circuits and a 5GHz RF front end module AWL9581(Anadigics). Also this module supports high speed

3x3 SU-MIMO and 80MHz bandwidth.
