1.5 Board Mounting Considerations
The RF300PD1 module is designed to mount into a receptacle (socket) on the host
board. Picture 1.1 shows an RF300PD1 module plugged in to a host board. The
receptacle sockets are on standard 2mm centers. Suggested receptacles to be used on
the host are:
(1) Thru-hole receptacle: Samtec MMS-112-01-L-SV
(2) 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. Picture 1.1 shows the
RF300PD1 with SMA connector mounted to the host board.
