RV-Z50-E Quick Start
6
The primary connector is fully pin-for-pin compatible with M8 UHF, VHF, 220MHZ modems, and V50 ISM
band radio modems.
By default, the serial port is set to 38400 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity bit.

Connecting to Power
The Z50 is available with two DC power input options. The -3A version is designed to run off of 5V DC
input. The -3B version has an internal high-efficiency DC-DC converter allowing the unit to be powered
from 7-30 volts DC. Pin 19 must be connected to the ground or negative power supply signal. Pin 2 is the
positive DC input voltage.
5.1.4
RF Antenna Connection
The RF Antenna Connection on the Z50 is an MMCX female. A typical mating
connector, MMCX male, is a RMX-9010-1B from RF Industries.
A suitable antenna must work on the frequency bands that your cellular carrier
is using. The Z50 can operate on any of these UMTS bands: B1, B2, B5, B6, B8, or
B19. The antenna used with the Z50 must be designed to operate on all of the bands that the carrier
you are using will utilize. To comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and
human exposure to RF radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss
If the antenna is within 1 meter of a human, must not exceed:
6.43 dBi in the cellular band
3.0 dBi in the PCS band
5.1.5
GPS Antenna Connection
If installed, the GPS Antenna Connection is a U.FL female (sometimes known as IPEX)
Common Carriers use these types of wireless technology and frequency bands:
T-Mobile (3G
WCDMA)
Bands B2
For AT&T
Bands B2, B5
