Digi Connect EM & Digi Connect Wi-EM Hardware Reference
Another option for both signal reception and design flexibility is to use a "pig tail" cable
Digi part number DC-ANT-EC to separate the antenna from the module. This allows the
module to fit inside your product but the antenna to be placed outside the device.
