RF LAYOUT DESIGN GUIDELINES
The following is a list of RF layout design guidelines and recommendation when installing a Summit radio into
your device.
 Do not run antenna cables directly above or directly below the radio.
 Do not place any parts or run any high speed digital lines below the radio.
 If there are other radios or transmitters located on the device (such as a Bluetooth radio), place the
devices as far apart from each other as possible.
 Ensure that there is the maximum allowable spacing separating the antenna connectors on the Summit
radio from the antenna. In addition, do not place antennas directly above or directly below the radio.
 Summit recommends the use of a double shielded cable for the connection between the radio and the
antenna elements.
 Use proper electro-static-discharge (ESD) procedures when installing the Summit radio module.
