The RF signals must be routed using traces with a 50 characteristic impedance. Basically, the characteristic impedance depends on the dielectric constant (r) of the material used, trace width (W), trace thickness (T), and height (H) between the trace and the reference ground plane. In order to respect this constraint, Sierra Wireless recommends that a MicroStrip structure be used and trace width be computed with a simulation tool (such as AppCAD, shown in the figure below and available free of charge at http://www.avagotech.com). Figure 1. AppCAD Screenshot for MicroStrip Design Power Mode Diagram The trace width should be wide enough to maintain reasonable insertion loss and manufacturing reliability. Cutting out inner layers of ground under the trace will increase the effective substrate height; therefore, increasing the width of the RF trace. Caution:
It is critical that no other signals (digital, analog, or supply) cross under the RF path. The figures below show generic examples of good routing techniques. Figure 2. RF Routing Example with Lead Type RF Connectors 4114511 Rev 1.1 August 02, 2013 26 Hardware Integration Guide RF Circuit Routing Constraints Figure 3. RF Routing Example with SMT Type RF Connectors Fill the area around the RF traces with ground and ground vias to connect inner ground layers for isolation. Cut out ground fill under RF signal pads to reduce stray capacitance losses. Avoid routing RF traces with sharp corners. A smooth radius is recommended. The ground reference plane should be a solid continuous plane under the trace. The coplanar clearance (G, below) from the trace to the ground should be at least the trace width (W) and at least twice the height (H). This reduces the parasitic capacitance, which potentially alters the trace impedance and increases the losses. Note the figure below shows several internal ground layers cutout, which may not be necessary for every application. Figure 4. Coplanar Clearance Example Figure 5. Antenna Microstrip Routing Example 4114511 Rev 1.1 August 02, 2013 27 5. Mechanical and Environmental Specifications Note:

Important Notice Because of the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be totally lost. Although significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the Sierra Wireless modem are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network, the Sierra Wireless modem should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage of any kind to the user or any other party, including but not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra Wireless and its affiliates accept no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or received using Sierra Wireless modem, or for failure of the Sierra Wireless modem to transmit or receive such data. 6.1.1. Safety and Hazards Do not operate you SL3010T modem:
In areas where blasting is in progress Where explosive atmospheres may be present including refueling points, fuel depots, and chemical plants Near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the SL3010T modem MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the SL3010T modem can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment In an aircraft, the SL3010T modem MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the SL3010T modem can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the cellular network. Use of cellular phone in aircraft is illegal in some jurisdictions. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspension or denial of cellular telephone services to the offender, or legal action or both. Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground and the door is open. The SL3010T modem may be used normally at this time. 6.1.2. Important Compliance Information for USA OEM Integrators The SL3010T modem is granted with a modular approval for mobile applications. Integrators may use the SL3010T modem in their final products without additional FCC/IC (Industry Canada) certification if they meet the following conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC/IC approvals must be obtained. 1. At least 20cm separation distance between the antenna and the users body must be maintained at all times. 2. To comply with FCC/IC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile-only exposure condition must not exceed 5dBi for Cellular band and 4dBi for CDMA PCS band. 3. The SL3010T modem and the antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other transmitter or antenna within a host device. 4114511 Rev 1.1 August 02, 2013 32 Hardware Integration Guide Regulatory Approval 4.

Regulatory Approval Important Notice Because of the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be totally lost. Although significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the Sierra Wireless modem are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network, the Sierra Wireless modem should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage of any kind to the user or any other party, including but not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra Wireless and its affiliates accept no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or received using Sierra Wireless modem, or for failure of the Sierra Wireless modem to transmit or receive such data. Safety and Hazards Do not operate you SL5011 modem:
In areas where blasting is in progress Where explosive atmospheres may be present including refueling points, fuel depots, and chemical plants Near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the SL5011 modem MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the SL5011 modem can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment In an aircraft, the SL5011 modem MUST BE POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the SL5011 modem can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the cellular network. Use of cellular phone in aircraft is illegal in some jurisdictions. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspension or denial of cellular telephone services to the offender, or legal action or both. Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground and the door is open. The SL5011 modem may be used normally at this time. Important Compliance Information for USA OEM Integrators The SL5011 modem is granted with a modular approval for mobile applications. Integrators may use the SL5011 modem in their final products without additional FCC/IC (Industry Canada) certification if they meet the following conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC/IC approvals must be obtained. 1. At least 20cm separation distance between the antenna and the users body must be maintained at all times. 2. To comply with FCC/IC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile-
only exposure condition must not exceed 5dBi for Cellular band and 4dBi for CDMA PCS band. 3. The SL5011 modem and the antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other transmitter or antenna within a host device. WA_DEV_SL5011_PTS_001 Rev 001 February 15, 2011 31 Product Technical Specification &
Customer Design Guidelines Regulatory Approval 4. The RF signal must be routed on the application board using tracks with a 50 characteristic impedance. Basically, the characteristic impedance depends on the dielectric, the track width and the ground plane spacing. In order to respect this constraint, Sierra Wireless recommends using MicroStrip or StripLine structure and computing the Tracks width with a simulation tool (like AppCad shown in the figure below and that is available free of charge at http://www.agilent.com). AppCad screenshot for MicroStrip design If a multi-layered PCB is used, the RF path on the board must not cross any signal
(digital, analog or supply). If necessary, use StripLine structure and route the digital line(s) "outside" the Fstructure as shown in the figure below. 50 line LGA pin for ANT Routing examples Stripline and Coplanar design requires having a correct ground plane at both sides. Consequently, it is necessary to add some vias along the RF path. WA_DEV_SL5011_PTS_001 Rev 001 February 15, 2011 32 Product Technical Specification &
Customer Design Guidelines Regulatory Approval It is recommended to use Stripline design if the RF path is fairly long (more than 3cm), since MicroStrip design is not shielded. Consequently, the RF signal (when transmitting) may interfere with neighboring electronics (AF amplifier, etc.). In the same way, the neighboring electronics (micro-controllers, etc.) may degrade the reception performances. The CDMA connector is intended to be directly connected to a 50 antenna and no matching is needed. 5. A label must be affixed to the outside of the end product into which the SL5011 modem is incorporated, with a statement similar to the following:
This device contains FCC ID: N7NSL5011 Contains transmitter module IC: 2417C-SL5011 where 2417C-SL5011 is the modules certification number. A user manual with the end product must clearly indicate the operating requirements and conditions that must be observed to ensure compliance with current FCC/IC RF exposure guidelines. The end product with an embedded SL5011 modem may also need to pass the FCC Part 15 unintentional emission testing requirements and be properly authorized. Note: If this module is intended for use in a portable device, you are responsible for separate approval to satisfy the SAR requirements of FCC Part 2.1093 and IC RSS-102.
