Use Hirose U.FL connectors (3 mm x 3 mm, low profile; model U.FL #CL331-0471-0-10) to attach antennas to connection points on the module.
Match coaxial connections between the module and the antenna to 50 .
Minimize RF cable losses to the antenna; the recommended maximum cable
loss for antenna cabling is 0.5 dB. To ensure best thermal performance, mounting holes must be used to attach
(ground) the device to the main PCB ground or a metal chassis. Note: If the antenna connection is shorted or open, the modem will not sustain permanent damage. Shielding The module is fully shielded to protect against EMI and must not be removed. Antenna and Cabling When selecting the antenna and cable, it is critical to RF performance to match antenna gain and cable loss. Choosing the Correct Antenna and Cabling When matching antennas and cabling:
The antenna (and associated circuitry) should have a nominal impedance of 50 with a recommended return loss of better than 10 dB across each frequency band of operation. The system gain value affects both radiated power and regulatory (FCC, IC, CE, etc.) test results.
Designing Custom Antennas Consider the following points when designing custom antennas:
A skilled RF engineer should do the development to ensure that the RF performance is maintained. 12 Proprietary and Confidential - Contents subject to change 4118013
If both UMTS and CDMA modules will be installed in the same platform, you may want to develop separate antennas for maximum performance. RF Specifications Determining the Antennas Location When deciding where to put the antennas:
Antenna location may affect RF performance. Although the module is shielded to prevent interference in most applications, the placement of the antenna is still very important if the host device is insufficiently shielded, high levels of broadband or spurious noise can degrade the modules perfor-
mance. Connecting cables between the module and the antenna must have 50 impedance. If the impedance of the module is mismatched, RF performance is reduced significantly. Antenna cables should be routed, if possible, away from noise sources
(switching power supplies, LCD assemblies, etc.). If the cables are near the noise sources, the noise may be coupled into the RF cable and into the antenna.
Disabling the Diversity Antenna Use the AT command !RXDEN=0 to disable receive diversity or !RXDEN=1 to enable receive diversity. Note: A diversity antenna is used to improve connection quality and reliability through redundancy. Because two antennas may experience difference interference effects (signal distortion, delay, etc.), when one antenna receives a degraded signal, the other may not be similarly affected. Ground Connection When connecting the module to system ground:
Prevent noise leakage by establishing a very good ground connection to the module through the host connector. Connect to system ground using the two mounting holes at the top of the module.
Minimize ground noise leakage into the RF. Depending on the host board design, noise could potentially be coupled to the module from the host board. This is mainly an issue for host designs that have signals traveling along the length of the module, or circuitry operating at both ends of the module interconnects. Interference and Sensitivity Several interference sources can affect the modules RF performance
(RF desense). Common sources include power supply noise and device-
generated RF. Rev 1 Sep.15 Proprietary and Confidential - Contents subject to change 13 Hardware Integration Guide RF desense can be addressed through a combination of mitigation techniques
(Methods to Mitigate Decreased Rx Performance on page 15) and radiated sensitivity measurement (Radiated Sensitivity Measurement on page 15). Note: The MC7455 is based on ZIF (Zero Intermediate Frequency) technologies. When performing EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) tests, there are no IF (Intermediate Frequency) components from the module to consider. Interference From Other Wireless Devices Wireless devices operating inside the host device can cause interference that affects the module. To determine the most suitable locations for antennas on your host device, evaluate each wireless devices radio system, considering the following:
Any harmonics, sub-harmonics, or cross-products of signals generated by wireless devices that fall in the modules Rx range may cause spurious response, resulting in decreased Rx performance. The Tx power and corresponding broadband noise of other wireless devices may overload or increase the noise floor of the modules receiver, resulting in Rx desense.
The severity of this interference depends on the closeness of the other antennas to the modules antenna. To determine suitable locations for each wireless devices antenna, thoroughly evaluate your host devices design. Host-generated RF Interference All electronic computing devices generate RF interference that can negatively affect the receive sensitivity of the module. Display panel and display drivers Switching-mode power supplies Proximity of host electronics to the antenna in wireless devices can contribute to decreased Rx performance. Components that are most likely to cause this include:
Microprocessor and memory
Device-generated RF Interference The module can cause interference with other devices. Wireless devices such as AirPrime embedded modules transmit in bursts (pulse transients) for set durations
(RF burst frequencies). Hearing aids and speakers convert these burst frequencies into audible frequencies, resulting in audible noise. 14 Proprietary and Confidential - Contents subject to change 4118013 RF Specifications
Methods to Mitigate Decreased Rx Performance It is important to investigate sources of localized interference early in the design cycle. To reduce the effect of device-generated RF on Rx performance:
Put the antenna as far as possible from sources of interference. The drawback is that the module may be less convenient to use. Shield the host device. The module itself is well shielded to avoid external interference. However, the antenna cannot be shielded for obvious reasons. In most instances, it is necessary to employ shielding on the components of the host device (such as the main processor and parallel bus) that have the highest RF emissions. Filter out unwanted high-order harmonic energy by using discrete filtering on low frequency lines. Form shielding layers around high-speed clock traces by using multi-layer PCBs. Route antenna cables away from noise sources.
Radiated Spurious Emissions (RSE) When designing an antenna for use with AirPrime embedded modules, the host device with an AirPrime embedded module must satisfy any applicable standards / local regulatory bodies for radiated spurious emission (RSE) for receive-only mode and for transmit mode (transmitter is operating). Note that antenna impedance affects radiated emissions, which must be compared against the conducted 50-ohm emissions baseline. (AirPrime embedded modules meet the 50-ohm conducted emissions requirement.) Radiated Sensitivity Measurement A wireless host device contains many noise sources that contribute to a reduction in Rx performance. To determine the extent of any receiver performance desensitization due to self-
generated noise in the host device, over-the-air (OTA) or radiated testing is required. This testing can be performed by Sierra Wireless or you can use your own OTA test chamber for in-house testing.

Individual connection meters show the active data transmission rate. The transmission rate appears in increments of 500 Kb/s. A dot at the bottom of each meter indicates the status of the connection:
a green dot indicates a successful network connection a grey dot indicates that the cell carrier signal is out 13 | LIVE+ GoBox User Guide www.dejero.com of range, or is not responding to connection requests a pulsing grey icon indicates that transmitter is initializing a connection When you start a live stream on the transmitter, each modem connection displays the network type (HSPA, LTE, UMTS, etc.). A received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value also appears to show approximate strength of the connection. Note: After you press Play for a live broadcast, cellular coverage appears
(indicated by a green dot). Combined Transmission meter The Combined Transmission meter shows the total data transmitted by all connections, in increments of 500 Kb/s. The blue bar indicates the total data transmitted by all connections. The blue arrow is the current target rate for encoding the data and indicates the Encoder Bit Rate. It corresponds to the number located under the server status bar. Network and Server Indicators Glass-to-Glass latency Latency measures time delay. The delay represents the glass-to-
glass latency of the transmission, calculated in real-time. Glass-to-
glass refers to the total amount of delay from the camera lens to the video output from the SDI port of LIVE+ Broadcast Server in the studio. Stream Health indicator The Stream Health indicator measures the quality of the live video stream received, decoded, and displayed by the output server. The two components that have the strongest effect on the health of the stream are:
The number of video frames that arrive at the server in time. Frames that are late or missing can result in paused or stuttering video, or video artifacts such as smearing or discoloration. The bitrate at which the video frames are encoded. Excessively low bitrates result in poor quality picture, indicated by blockiness and lack of detail. When neither of these events occurs, the Stream Health indicator displays as 100%. Lost or late video frames drop the indicator value very quickly and it displays as 0% in a very short period of time. If there are no lost or late frames for 5 seconds, the indicator returns to 100%. If the encoder bitrate is consistently low, the indicator displays a value between 0% and 100%. The number under the server percentage shows what the encoder is running at. It corresponds to the blue transmission meter. 14 | LIVE+ GoBox User Guide Transport Resolution www.dejero.com For best picture quality, even in challenging network conditions, the GoBox adjusts the transport resolution automatically. The transport resolution is at the bottom of the screen, along with the input resolution and the output resolution.

Short: A 1.5 second latency Medium: A 3 second latency Long: An 8 second latency Note: In an area of poor coverage, or very high cellular network traffic, you might achieve better video transmission results with a medium or long latency. Latency modes Fixed Latency mode: In Fixed Latency mode, the system attempts to give the glass-to-glass latency requested (either short, medium, long, or preset). If the current network conditions cannot support the requested latency, ERROR 17 appears on the transmitter. Adaptive Latency mode: In Adaptive Latency mode, the system measures the network conditions during the stream and gradually adjusts the requested latency upwards to a value that is supported by the current conditions. Up-to Latency mode: In Up-to Latency mode, the system measures the network conditions during the beginning of the stream and provides the shortest possible latency available. If the conditions worsen during the stream, the transmitter gradually increases the latency up to the maximum latency that you set. When the transmitter reaches the maximum latency, the latency remains fixed at the specified value. Configure the Live Resolution setting Live resolution is the resolution of the video, as transmitted over-the-air when broadcasting. It is independent of the transmitter input and server output resolutions. 1. On the Device Ready screen, press the Configuration touchpad button 2. On the Configuration screen, press the Live touchpad button. 3. Set the Live Resolution to Auto: SD, Auto: SD+, Auto: HD, Auto: HD+, or Manual.

Glass-to-glass refers to the delay from the time the EnGo detects an image to the time that it appears on a video monitor connected to the SDI output of the LIVE+ Broadcast Server, or is output from the LIVE+ Cloud Server. When transmitting live, the glass-to-glass latency appears on the Preview screen, above the Go Live button. Stream Health indicator When transmitting live, the Stream Health indicator appears on the Preview screen above the Live menu. It appears as either Good, Marginal, or Poor. A colored dot appears along with the value to show the stream health. The Stream Health indicator measures the quality of the live video stream received, decoded, and displayed by the output server. The two components that have the strongest effect on the health of the stream are:
The number of video frames that arrive at the server in time. Frames that are late or missing can result in paused or stuttering video, or video artifacts such as smearing or discoloration. The bitrate at which the video frames are encoded. Excessively low bitrates result in poor quality picture, indicated by blockiness and lack of detail. When neither of these events occurs, the Stream Health indicator appears as Good. 31 | LIVE+ EnGo User Guide Troubleshooting www.dejero.com No display on Preview screen If you do not see a video on the Preview screen, perform the following actions:
