4.4.2 Conducted Transmit Power The conducted transmit power is another indicator that measures the performance of MU609. The conducted transmit power refers to the maximum power that the module tested at the antenna pad can transmit. According to the 3GPP protocol, the required transmit power varies with the power class.
In addition, the transmission cable from the antenna port of MU609 to the antenna is also part of the antenna. The cable loss increases with the cable length and the frequency. It is recommended that the cable loss is as low as possible.

Antenna type Antenna direction The primary antenna must be placed as near as possible to the MU609 to minimize The diversity antenna the cable length. needs to be installed perpendicularly to the primary antenna. The diversity antenna can be placed farther away from the MU609.
The gain of an antenna takes both the directivity and the efficiency of the antenna into account. The appropriate antenna gain prolongs the service life of relevant batteries. The following antenna gain is recommended for MU609. Gain of the primary/diversity antenna ≤ 2.5 dBi The antenna consists of the antenna body and the relevant RF transmission cable.
