About the module Multiplexed GPIO
ConnectCore for i.MX51 Hardware Reference Manual
62
On the ConnectCore Wi-i.MX51 module variant, attach the antennas with the U.FL-RP-SMA female
cable to the primary connector and secondary connector on the module.
Note When disconnecting U.FL connectors, we strongly recommend the use of a U.FL plug extraction
tool (Hirose P/N U.FL-LP-N-2 or U.FL-LP(V)-N-2) to avoid damage to the U.FL connectors on the
module.
To mate U.FL connectors, you must align the mating axes of both connectors. The “click” will confirm
mated connection. Do not attempt insertion at an extreme angle.
