a. Table entries show which bands are supported by each module. The actual bands used depend on the device location (North
America, Europe, etc.). See Table A-1 on page 91 for antenna requirements by region.
b. G—GSM/GPRS/EDGE; U—UMTS; Y—Yes
c. UMTS 800 (Band VI) is a subset of UMTS 850 (Band V)—An antenna supporting UMTS 850 therefore also supports UMTS
800.
