# Radio Power Module Specifications

The following tables provide the operating and mechanical specifications for the Radio Power Module.

{% hint style="danger" %}
DO NOT exceed the maximum electrical specifications. Doing so will cause permanent damage to the Radio Power Module and will void the warranty.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
DO NOT reverse the 12V power input polarity. Doing so will cause permanent damage to the REV Radio Power Module and will void the warranty.
{% endhint %}

| :-: | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|  †† | If using a ferrule, we recommend using square or hex shaped crimps.                                                                          |

{% hint style="warning" %}
Make sure to consider the current and safety requirements when choosing a wire gauge for any given application.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
DO NOT connect the roboRIO to the WiFi Radio Ethernet port. Doing so can cause permanent damage to the roboRIO.
{% endhint %}
