WL1837MOD: Questions related to WL1837 Module

Part Number: WL1837MOD
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: WL1837

We planned to use TI’s WL1837 module. We have a few questions as listed below.
 
Note: It is planned to use the same PCB layout design as TI’s EVK for certification reuse.
 
  1. Please share the throughput UDP/TCP achieved in 2.4GHz and 5GHz
  2. What will be the maximum range possible ? I understand this depends on multiple factor but 80 meters is the requirement. I would like to understand the maximum range tested by TI where the module is connected and able to give at-least 2Mbps throughput. The product is intended for indoors so 5GHz susceptibility is understood but would like to have this data for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz.
  3. Also please suggest best antenna (certified) to be used to achieve this maximum range you are suggesting. We noticed the certified antennas for WL1837 is listed in http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/WL18xxMOD_Regulatory_Product_Certification
  4. Please share the certified firmware and driver for our use in this product.
  5. Please share the details on test setup used by TI. This information will be helpful to compare our setup and results achieved by us.
  6. Is this module’s Bluetooth fall under Class 1 or Class 2 ? Please confirm.

Thank you
