SAFETY INFORMATION
The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, such as usage, service or repair of any
cellular terminal or mobile incorporating ME3610 module. Manufacturers of the cellular terminal should send the following safety
information to users and operating personnel and to incorporate these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the product. If not
so, ZTEWelink does not take on any liability for customer failure to comply with these precautions.
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an accident. Using a
mobile while driving (even with a hands free kit) cause distraction and can lead to an accident. You must
comply with laws and regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while driving.
Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it switched off. The
operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with communication
systems. Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on boarding the aircraft, if your device
offers a Airplane Mode which must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Switch off your wireless device when in hospitals or clinics or other health care facilities. These
requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.
GSM cellular terminals or mobiles operate over radio frequency signal and cellular network and
cannot be guaranteed to connect in all conditions, for example no mobile fee or an invalid SIM card. While
you are in this condition and need emergent help, please remember using emergency call. In order to make
or receive call, the cellular terminal or mobile must be switched on and in a service area with adequate
cellular signal strength.
Your cellular terminal or mobile contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and
transmits radio frequency energy. RF interference can occur if it is used close to TV set, radio, computer or
other electric equipment.
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices
such as your phone or other cellular terminals. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres including
fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders.

Pins of MSM_CTS, MSM_RTS, MSM_RXD and MSM_TXD are 1.8V level respectively for the external interface, when connecting
with level circuit which is not 1.8V will need the level switch connection. Pins of MO_RI, DCD, DTR and DSR are the level of 2.85V
respectively for the external interface, when connecting with level circuit which is not 2.85V will need the level switch connection.
Otherwise, UART will be unstable or module will be damaged because of the unmatched level. Figure 3-3, 3-4 and 3-5 are the
references:
NOTES:
1)UART must be led out[only requires the connection with RXD or TXD] for upgrading when use the module to do whole device design, USB for
software upgrading is the first choice.
2)IO level is 1.8V or 2.85V. Level switch connection must be needed when 1.8V level is connected with the logic circuit which is not 1.8V[such as
MCU, RS232 or driver IC MAX3238], or when 2.85V level is connected with the logic circuit which is not 2.85V[for example, RS232 or driver IC
MAX3238]. Otherwise, level will be unstable or module will be damaged because of the unmatched level
3)Only RXD and TXD are needed to be connected under the condition of no flow control. RXD, TXD, /CTS and /RTS are needed to be used when
selecting hardware flow control to connect other processors. All IO signal should be connected when the module is used as Modem to connect
with PC.
4)Module won’t be hibernated if RxD is high level.

4. A NTENNA INTERFACE
The RF interface of the MC2261 Module has an impedance of 50 ohm. The module is capable of sustaining a total mismatch at
the antenna connector or pad without any damage, even when transmitting at maximum RF power.
The external antenna must be matched properly to achieve best performance regarding radiated power, DC-power
consumption, modulation accuracy and harmonic suppression. Antenna matching networks are not included on the MC2261 Module
PCB and should be placed in the host application.
Regarding the return loss, the Module provides the following values in the active band:
Table 4–1 Return Loss in the Active Band
State of Module
Return Loss of Module
Recommended Return Loss of Application
Receive
≥ 8dB
≥ 12dB
Transmit
not applicable
≥ 12dB
The connection of the antenna or other equipment must be de coupled from DC voltage. This is necessary because the antenna
connector is DC coupled to ground via an inductor for ESD protection.
4.1. A NTENNA I NSTALLATION
To suit the physical design of individual applications, the MC2261 offers two alternatives approached to connecting the
antenna:
■ Recommended approach: CS-G2-SS1S-1.6S antenna connector manufactured by Percsson assembled on the daughter board.
See Section 4.3 for details. CS-G2-SS1S-1.6D antenna connector manufactured by Percsson assembled on the component side
of the PCB (top view on Module). See Section 4.3 for details.
■ Antenna pad and grounding plane placed on the bottom side. See Section 4.2 for details.
The SSMB-50TKE-10 and NMM22-5017 connectors have been chosen as antenna reference point (ARP) for the ZTE reference
equipment submitted to type approve the MC2261 Module. All RF data specified throughout this manual are related to the ARP. For
compliance with the test results of the ZTE type approval you are advised to give priority to the connector, rather than using the
antenna pad.
NOTE: Both solutions can be applied alternatively. This means, if the antenna is connected to the pad, then the connector on the Module
must be left empty. If the antenna is connected to daughter board, the connector on the Module must be left empty too. And when the antenna is
connected to the Module connector, the pad is useless.
4.2. A NTENNA P AD
The antenna pad of the module is soldered to the board on the customer design to connect with RF line.
For proper grounding connect the RF line to the ground plane on the bottom of the MC2261 Module which must be connected
to the ground plane of the application.
Consider that according to CDMA recommendations as 50Ω connector is mandatory for type approval measurements. It must
be ensured that the RF line which is connected to antenna pad should be controlled on 50Ω.
Notes on soldering
■ To prevent damage to the Module and to obtain long-term solder joint properties, you are advised to maintain the standards
of good engineering practice for soldering.

5.2. A NTENNA S UBSYSTEM
The antenna sub-system and its design is a major part of the final product integration. Special attention and care should be
taken in adhering to the following guidelines.
5.2.1. ANTENNA SPECIFICATIONS
Choice of the antenna cable (type, length, performance, RF loss, etc) and antenna connector (type + losses) can have a major
impact on the success of the design.
5.2.2. CABLE LOSS
All cables have RF losses. Minimizing the length of the cable between the antenna and the RF connectors on the module will
help obtain superior performance. High Quality/Low loss co-axial cables should be used to connect the antenna to the RF connectors.
Contact the antenna vendor for the specific type of cable that interfaces with their antenna and ask them to detail the RF losses of
the cables supplied along with the antenna. Typically, the cable length should be such that they have no more than 1-2dB of loss.
Though the system will work with longer (lossy) cables, this will degrade CDMA system performance. Care should also be taken to
ensure that the cable end connectors/terminations are well assembled to minimize losses and to offer a reliable, sturdy connection
to the Module sub-system. This is particularly important for applications where the module is mounted on a mobile or portable
environment where it is subject to shock and vibration.
5.2.3. ANTENNA GAIN MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
It is recommended that the antenna chosen have at least 2 dBi gain in the cellular band and 4 dBi in the PCS band. The Antenna
subsystem shall also have at least 8 dB of return loss at the input with respect to a 50-ohm system.
5.2.4. ANTENNA GAIN MAXIMUM REQUIREMENTS
Our FCC Grant imposes a maximum gain for the antenna subsystem: 7 dBi for the Cellular band and 13dBi for the PCS band.
Warning: Excessive gain could damage sensitive RF circuits and void the warranty.
5.2.5. ANTENNA MATCHING
The module’s RF connectors are designed to work with a 50-ohm subsystem. It is assumed that the antenna chosen has
matching internal to it to match between the 50-ohm RF connectors and the antenna impedance.

Figure 5–3 Antenna Matching Circuit
5.2.6. PCB DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
• The antenna subsystem should be treated like any other RF system or component. It should be isolated as much as possible
from any noise generating circuitry including the interface signals via filtering and shielding.
• As a general recommendation all components or chips operating at high frequencies such as micro controllers, memory,
DC/DC converts and other RF components should not be placed too close to the module. When such cases exist, correct
supply and ground de-coupling areas should be designed and validated.
• Avoid placing the components around the RF connection and close to the RF line between the RF antenna and the module.
• RF lines and cables should be as short as possible.
• If using coaxial cable it should not be placed close to devices operating at low frequencies. Signals like charger circuits may
require some EMI/RFI decoupling such as filter capacitors or ferrite beads.
• Adding external impedance matching to improve the match to your cable and antenna assemblies is optional. Please contact
the antenna vendor for matching requirements.
• For better ESD protection one can implement a shock coil to ground and place it close to the RF connector.
5.2.7. OTHER PRECAUTIONS
V_MAIN_3V7 are used to supply the module. The module internally regulates these to obtain regulated voltages to supply both
the baseband and RF parts of the Module. V_MAIN_3V7 directly supplies the RDF components with 3.7V. It is essential to keep the
voltage ripple to a minimum at this connection in order to avoid phase error. Insufficient power supply voltage can dramatically
affect some RF performance such as TX power, modulation spectrum EMC performance, and spurious emissions and frequency
error.
The RF connections are 50-ohm impedance systems and are a DC short to ground. Best effort should be made to provide low
insertion loss and shielding between the external antenna and RF connections over the frequency band of interest.
5.2.8. GROUNDING
On terminals including the antenna, poor shielding can dramatically affect the sensitivity of the terminal. Moreover the power
emitted through the antenna can affect the application.
