The following regions have macros and region numbers defined for convenience.
The same omnidirectional antenna is used to transmit and receive the 802.11b/g RF signal.
An antenna switch isolates the high-power RF Tx signal path from the RF Rx signal path.
The antenna switch at U15 works by alternately connecting the antennas to either the
AL2236 Tx output or to the AL2236 Rx input. In order to support this antenna-sharing
scheme, the RCM5600W module operates the radio in a half-duplex mode so that receive
and transmit operations never occur at the same time
The RF connector on the Interface Board is an RP-SMA connector with its outer casing
attached to the RCM5600W ground.
There are two LEDs close to the RF shield, a green LED at DS1 (
tion with the Wi-Fi access point, and a yellow LED at DS2 (
4.3.1 Antenna Grounding Requirements
When deploying the RCM5600W in a production environment, take care to ensure that the
antenna is properly grounded via the RP-SMA connector and the U.FL to RP-SMA con-
nector cable. The RP-SMA connector must be firmly attached to a bracket or soldered to a
grounded location. If you are using a bracket, it must make firm contact with a ground
such as the plated, grounded mounting hole provided on the Interface Board.
