Note 1: Temperatures above +80°C and below -30°C reduce wireless performance. Module operates from -40°C cold start.
Note 2: Rates are based on operation at maximum wireless data rate, with escape checking set off, serial buffer size set to
maximum, minimum wireless interference, and no other LAN traffic.
Note 3: Flash and SRAM are not available to external applications.
Note 4: WLN UART model only.
