This is a new standard for small size radio modules, using PCI Express and USB 2.0 connectivity. On ALIX, only USB 2.0 connectivity is supported. Some manufacturers of radio modules (compatibility not tested by me):

• Novatel

• Option

• Sierra Wireless

wi-fi cards using PCI express will NOT work !

Board ID has been changed, flash updater will look for alix5.bin . For current BIOS, copy alix1.bin to alix5.bin.

Change board ID to 5 (BIOS selection).

Optional pin header for internal USB.

Optional alternate location for SIM sockets.

Integrate ECN.034 (SIM switch issue).

Optional reset controlled by USBEN2.

Change to normal LED routing (all LEDs controlled by software).

Various changes to improve EMI margin.
