This connection supports the following interface types and these are described below. The pinout is shown in Annex 1. 3.1.1  Universal Serial Bus The PCI Express edge connector provides a USB 2.0 interface, this interface supports low speed (1.5Mbps), full speed (12Mbps) and High speed (480Mbps) operation. 3.1.2 SIM Interface The PCI Express edge connector provides a 4 line SIM interface to allow use with Subscriber Identity Modules if required, this interface supports both 1.8V and 3.0V SIM’s. The SIM interface does not provide ESD protection and this should be provided by the host device. 3.1.3 RF Connections The General Dynamics Broadband PCI Express Mini module provides two RF connections for external antennas. The main port must be connected, the diversity port may or may not be connected depending upon application. The connector type is the Hirose U.FL series.  Figure 1: RF Connections 3.2 DC Power The module requires a DC supply of between 3.0V to 3.6VDC with the nominal voltage being 3.3VDC, maximum input current is 950mA at 3.3VDC. DC power is applied to the module via the PCI Express Mini edge connector.

The module is certified under FCC ID: PKTPEMAMW and is only certified for use with external antennas, the maximum antenna gains to comply with EIRP/ERP and RF Exposure limits for each band are shown below. •  Band 4 – 5dBi •  Band 12 – 8.6dBi (6.45dBd) Please refer to the FCC Grant of Certification for this device. If the FCC ID label on the PCI Express Mini Module is not visible from outside of the host device, then an additional label is required on the outside of the host device stating. ‘Contains FCC ID: PKTPEMAMW’ IMPORTANT: Manufacturers of devices containing the General Dynamics Broadband PCI Express Mini module are advised to. 1.  Clarify any regulatory questions, particularly if the host device contains other radio transceivers. 2.  Have their final product tested and approved for FCC compliance. 3.  Include instructions with the final product regarding meeting RF Exposure requirements of the FCC rules. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Caution: Changes or modifications not covered in this document must be approved in writing by General Dynamics Broadband. Changes or modifications made without written approval may void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. 5.2  Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals To comply with the FCC RF exposure rules, the UE PCI Express Mini module has been evaluated against the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits defined in Section 1.1310 of the FCC rules for the uncontrolled environment. During normal operation, all persons should maintain a distance of at least 20cm from the antenna to ensure compliance with the MPE limits. If after module integration, the user will be less than 20cm from the antennas additional RF exposure assessment will be required.
