1. AUX/GPS Antenna interface
It is used to connect an antenna which for diversity and GPS
2. MAIN Antenna interface
It is used to connect an antenna which for main TX and RX
3. Fixing hole
A screw, metal fastener, and nut are used to fix an ME936 module on a development board through
this fixing hole.
4. Gold Finger
It is connected to the M.2 connector on the development board.
Note:
In certain cases, your development board may be disassembled only by the professionals.
Before you install the ME936 onto the development board, consult the development board
manufacturer or read the user manual of the development board.

Installation Guide
It refers to M.2 specification.
The module will need a mechanical retention at the end of the board. The module specifies a 5.5
mm Dia. keep out zone at the end for attaching a screw.
The module Stand-off and mounting screw also serve as part of the module Electrical Ground path.
The Stand-off should be connected directly to the ground plane on the platform. So that when the
module is mounted and the mounting screw is screwed on to hold the module in place, this will
make the electrical ground connection from the module to the platform ground plane.
The stand-off must provide a Thermal Ground Path. The design requirements for thermal are a
material with a minimum conductivity of 50 watts per meter Kelvin and surface area of 22 Sq mm.

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF
exposure compliance.
Note 1: This module has been certified to comply with RF exposure requirements under
mobile or fixed condition, this module is to be installed only in mobile or fixed applications.
The system antenna(s) used for this module must not exceed 2.5dBi.
The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. The
FCC ID label on the final system must be labeled with “Contains FCC ID: QISME936
As long as the above conditions are met, further transmitter test will not be required.
However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any
additional compliance requirements required with this module installed. To ensure
compliance with all non-transmitter functions the host manufacturer is responsible for
ensuring compliance with the module(s) installed and fully operational. For example, if a
host was previously authorized as an unintentional radiator under the Declaration of
Conformity procedure without a transmitter certified module and a module is added, the
host manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that the after the module is installed and
8
operational the host continues to be compliant with the Part 15B unintentional radiator
requirements.
In case the conditions specified above cannot be met, the FCC authorization would no
longer be considered valid and the FCC ID could not be used on the final product. Under
these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end
product (including the transmitter (s)) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
Additional tests for compliance with RF Exposure compliance (i.e. portable applications)
and transmitter / host specific tests could be required.
