5.1 Transceiver
The LX2400S measures 1.65” x 2.65”. Critical parameters are as follows:
J1 – 20 pin connector (lower left edge) SAMTEC TMM-110-01-L-D-SM
J1 – 20 pin connector (lower left edge) SAMTEC TMM-110-01-L-D-SM
(4) Mounting holes are 0.100” diameter.

5.2 Antenna
The LX2400S-3A and the LX2400S-10A incorporate an Aerocomm NZH antenna on the transceiver board.
The NZH is a highly efficient, microstrip, center-fed dipole design with a broad pattern. The NZH is
matched to the RF circuits yielding superior performance. This is important when using low-power RF
transceivers because a poor or marginally matched antenna will drastically reduce the operating distance
between transceivers. Special consideration must be given to the antenna placement in the OEM’s design.
Materials in close proximity (up to 4 inches) can affect antenna performance. Aerocomm can assist the OEM
with fine-tuning the antenna and/or enclosure that will incorporate the transceiver. Contact your AeroComm
OEM salesman or OEM customer support for assistance. The LX2400S-10 and LX2400-150 incorporate an
MMCX jack (Telegartner P/N J0134A0081) allowing the OEM to select antennas with specific
characteristics.
