02 / CONNECTION

Match the interface.
Then connect the equipment.

Match physical interfaces and application protocols separately.

SPI host connection

Mini-PCIe describes the form factor; data uses SPI, and the host must support full-duplex SPI.

Timing and control

Supports external GPS PPS input, active-high reset and RX_ON / TX_ON / CFG_ON status signals.

RF connection

Uses a first-generation I-PEX connector; match the antenna band to the module model and deployment region.

For terminal positions, wire assignments and installation, follow the official wiring instructions .
