12.4 Recommended External Antennas

The ATWILC1000-MR110UB module is approved to use with the antennas listed in the following table.

It is permissible to use different antenna, provided the same antenna type, antenna gain (equal or less than), and similar in-band and out-of-band characteristics are present (refer to specification sheet for cutoff frequencies).

If other antenna types are used, the OEM installer must conduct the necessary assessments and authorize the antenna with respective regulatory agencies and ensure compliance. For more details on the corresponding regulatory approval sections, refer to Appendix A: Regulatory Approval.

Note:
  1. X = Antennas covered under the certification.
  2. If the end-product using the module is designed to have an antenna port that is accessible to the end user, an RP (Reverse Polarity)-SMA socket must be used.
  3. If an RF coaxial cable is used between the module RF output and the enclosure, then an RP-SMA connector must be used in the enclosure wall for the interface with the antenna.
  4. Contact the antenna vendor for detailed antenna specifications to review suitability to end-product operating environment and to identify alternatives.
