1. Introduction
1KUx is a customized PCI Express Mini Card, which is developed on Qualcomm MDM9600/9200 platform
and capable to provide various frequency configurations, support data operation on LTE, EVDO, HSUPA, HSDPA
and WCDMA connectivity for portable and hand-held computers.
1.1 Radio Frequency Configurations
The required radio frequency has been defined into 3 SKUs based on customer needs, 1KUx is a general
definition of this embed module, precise name will be named as 1KU1, 1KU2 and 1KU3 in accordance with
bands configuration.
Due to limited space reserved for the module and Qualcomm’s chipset configuration , 3 SKUs have to be
realized by leveraging 2 PCBs design. This PCI Express Mini Card is able to support UP TO Quad Bands in
LTE/UMTS and Quad Bands in EDGE, GPRS, and GSM if required. Hence, the following SKU table will become as
whole framework of product specification.
Table 1-1
2. Main Features
The following features set can be referred to 1KU1, 1KU2 and 1KU3, bands supported frequency depend on
each SKU bands configuration.
