5.  Antenna interface 
There  are  three  antenna  ports  for  SIM808,  GSM  antenna  port  named  RF_ANT,  GPS  antenna  port  named 
GPS_ANT,  The RF interface  of  the three antenna  ports  has an  impedance  of 50Ω.The  maximum gain of the 
antenna gain should not exceed 3dbi considering the SAR radio. 
  The input impendence of the antenna should be 50Ω, and the VSWR should be less than 2. 
  It is recommended that the GSM antenna and the GPS antenna be placed as far as better.   
  The isolations of the three antenna should be bigger than 30db 
5.1 GSM Antenna Interface 
There is a  GSM  antenna pad  named RF_ANT  for SIM808 the  connection  of  the antenna  must be  decoupled
