Retaining Bracket (Optional)

For some applications, it is desirable to secure the radio card so that it does not accidentally eject from the SDIO card cage. Silex offers the 150-00192-100 retaining bracket as an optional accessory for these applications. This clip, which also reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI), is installed as shown in the picture below.
