RN2483 with SMA Antenna

[espenmei]

Hi
I’ve received some of these (http://shop.sodaq.com/en/sodaq-lorabee-rn2483.html) along with some SMA antennas (standard male connector).

I’m wondering how i can attach a female connector to the chip to connect the antenna. Any tips? I see the blue version of these has it integrated, but the green ones don’t.
Thanks in advance!
