Re: T-Mobile Home Internet has hidden MHF4 connectors for external antennas?


...However, I am still searching for a way to connect an antenna directly to the TM-RTL0102.


You can do external antennas on the RTL0102 without having to solder pigtails.

Re: T-Mobile Home Internet has hidden MHF4 connectors for external antennas?

the pad layout looks identical to a normal MHF4 on that SW23, so I think you probably could put one down on the trace

Re: T-Mobile Home Internet has hidden MHF4 connectors for external antennas?

I believe they cut or made SMA pigtails and removed the connectors, just soldered directly to the PCB.

The diversity connectors appear to use regular MHF4 or some U.FL (not sure which or what kinds actually)...
