Antenna connection by spring contact.  Antenna connection by coaxial cable. 
Note: 
• 
The WISMO™  Quik Q2403 Series does not include an antenna switch for 
a car kit but this function can be implemented externally and it can be 
driven using a GPIO. 
• 
The antenna cable and connector should be chosen in order to minimize 
losses in the frequency bands used for GSM 900MHz and 
GSM1800MHz. 
• 
0.5dB can be considered as a maximum value for loss between the 
module and an external connector. 
2.19.1.1 Antenna directly connected to the module: matching circuit 
The goal of the matching circuit is to link the antenna (impedance ZA) to the 
receiver and transmitter access of the module (impedance ZL = 50 Ohm real).

The matching circuit is composed by four elements implemented (see Figure 
15 and Figure 16) on the module connecting the "Antenna pad" to the "Round 
pad" (access to the receiver and the transmitter). 
The four elements of the matching circuit are not yet defined, and depend on 
each antenna and mechanical integration. The matching circuit must be 
verified in both frequency bandwidths: 900 MHz (880 to 960 MHz) and 1800 
MHz (1710 to 1880 MHz).
