Board Mounting Considerations
The RF200PD1 and RF200PF1 modules are designed to mount into a receptacle (socket) on the host
board. Figure 1.3 shows an RF200PD1 module plugged in to a host board. The receptacle sockets are on
standard 2mm centers. Suggested receptacles to be used on the host are:
Thru-hole receptacle Samtec MMS-112-01-L-SV
Surface mount receptacle Samtec MMS-112-02-L-SV
It is recommended that the mounting holes provided in the module on either side of the SMA connector
be used with supporting mounting hardware to hard mount the module to either the host board or to the
enclosure to handle the mechanical stresses that can occur when an external antenna is screwed into the
SMA. Figure 1.3 shows the RF200PD1 with SMA connector mounted to the host board.
