1 Introduction

1.1 Document Introduction

This document describes the electrical characteristics, RF performance, structure size, application environment, etc. of MA510-GL module. With the assistance of the document and other instructions, the developers can quickly understand the hardware functions of the MA510-GL module and develop products.

1.2 Safety Precautions

By following the safety guidelines below, you can protect the personal safety and help protect the product and work environment from potential damage. Product manufacturers need to communicate the following safety instructions to end users. In case of failure to comply with these safety rules, Fibocom Wireless will not be responsible for the consequences caused by the user’s misuse.

Road safety first! When you drive, do not use the handheld devices even if it has a hand-free feature. Please stop and call!

Please turn off the mobile device before boarding. The wireless feature of the mobile device is not allowed on the aircraft to prevent interference with the aircraft communication system. Ignoring this note may result in flight safety issue or even breaking the law.

When in a hospital or health care facility, please be aware of restrictions on the use of mobile

devices. Radio frequency interference may cause medical equipment to malfunction, so it may be necessary to turn off the mobile device.

The mobile device does not guarantee that an effective connection can be made under any circumstances, for example, when there is no prepayment for the mobile device or the (U)SIM is invalid. When you encounter the above situation in an emergency, remember to use an emergency call, while keeping your device turned on and in areas where signal is strong.

Your mobile device receives and transmits RF signals when it is powered on. Radio interference occurs when it is near televisions, radios, computers, or other electronic devices. Keep the mobile device away from flammable gases. Turn off the mobile device when near gas stations, oil depots, chemical plants or explosive workplaces. There is a safety hazard in operating electronic equipment in any potentially explosive environment.

Note:

①

Indicates that the module can work normally within this temperature range, and the relevant

performance meets the requirements of the 3GPP standard.

②

Indicates that the module can work normally in this temperature range. The baseband and RF functions are normal, but individual indicators may exceed the scope of the 3GPP standard. When the temperature returns to the normal working range of the module, the indicators of the module will still comply with the 3GPP standard.

3. * indicates that the feature is under development.
