### Cell Modem

-
The SARA-R412M-02B (U1) is a multi-region modem capable of connecting to 2G/Cat-M1/NBIoT networks worldwide. A dedicated SMA connector (J3) allows for an external antenna. The chip operates over the 1V8 power line. A microSIM slot is available (SIM1). SN74LVC1T45 bidirectional logic level shifters (U8, U20, U21, U22) act as middleware for connecting to 3V3 serial connections. The chip is powered by 3V8 and an internal regulator provides 1v8 that is used for the SIM card and the I/O. The corresponding SIM card slot for the cell modem is on the top side of the board, directly adjacent to the module.

The Arduino Portenta Max Carrier includes one female mini PCI Express card slot (J8). The connector is right angled and the board includes 4 removable standoffs for external module support. To use the spacer, add the plastic spacer on the top side of the board then attach the M2.5 screw from the back together with the washer. The Max Carrier supports two different Mini PCIe sizes. Pins 8, 10, 12 and 14 are reserved for UIM (in this case SIM).
