nice designs, 1 side assembly and surprisingly compact. I think they used the external switch since that is 1gB while the internal ones are only 100mB and the interconnect is through RGMII. The RF part is interesting since they're would be 2 antennas in parallel if you plug in a external one is that even allowed?
Yes the internal switch is only 100mbits , as for the rf part, seems the uf.l similar conn is only for test reasons in the factory, an external Antenna can be connected only on the non populated connector footprint.
@@KonstantinGrigoriadis that makes sense, probably there is a cheaper version without the GB switch IC but most of the same code. As for the uj.L it would also make sense to use that as a pass through test point, not much of a stub left
