Abstract
An Iridium 9603/9603N SBD Transceiver is provided. The improvement comprises a MOLEX 501591-2011 user connector replacing a SAMTEC ST4-10-2.50L-D-P-TR user connector. Furthermore, a method for replacing the SAMTEC ST4-10-2.50L-D-P-TR user connector of the Iridium 9603/9603N SBD Transceiver with the MOLEX 501591-2011 user connector is provided.
Claims2
A transceiver assembly comprising:
- an Iridium 9603/9603N SBD transceiver having a MOLEX 501591-2011 user connector;
- a flexible cable assembly mated with the user connector;
- and
- an antenna mounted to a control PCB, the control PCB being mated with the flexible cable assembly;
- wherein the transceiver, the antenna mounted to the control PCB, and the flexible cable assembly are disposed between two parallel planes with the two parallel planes coinciding with a top surface and a bottom surface of the transceiver, respectively;
- wherein the flexible cable assembly is configured to allow for misalignment between the transceiver and the control PCB;
- wherein the transceiver comprises a PCB having the user connector mounted to an end portion thereof and wherein the end portion of the PCB overlaps with an end portion of the control PCB of the antenna.
