Device Installation and User Manual
The FANW module is a proprietary product designed and manufactured by Continental
Automotive Systems, Inc. for integration into telematics control units manufactured by
Continental Automotive Systems, Inc. for automo
The module is limited to installation ONLY in an integrated device manufactured by
Continental Automotive Systems, Inc.
During manufacturing process of the integrated device, the module is soldered onto the
pcb of the integrated device.
The integrated device must provide RF connectors to external antennas or RF traces to
connect the FANW modules to antennas inside the integrated device.
The typical reference design for the trace layout, including pcb stack
described and shown in a Figure 3 below:
Typical RF trace layout between the FANW module and RF Connector:
Recommended RF Connector Type: Fakra
Main LTE/WCDMA antenna connector (MIMO1) is X203.
Recommended RF trace length is less than 40 mm.
LTE/WCDMA antenna connector (MIMO2) is X202.
Recommended RF trace length is less than 45 mm.
WiFi antenna connector is X201.
Recommended RF trace length is less than 50 mm.
