nRF54L15 DK nRF9151 DK Signal
P0.00 P0.26 UART TX → RX
P0.01 P0.27 UART RX ← TX
P0.02 P0.15 UART RTS → CTS
P0.03 P0.14 UART CTS ← RTS
P1.11 P0.31 DTR
P1.12 P0.30 RI
P1.10 P5 pin 5 nRESET
GND GND Ground
  • P0 connector: UART signals on the host; on the modem, the UART0 pins are on the DK edge.
  • P1 connector (host): DTR, RI, and modem reset.
  • Modem side: DTR and RI on P3; nRESET on P5 pin 5
  • Add a 1 kΩ series resistor on the reset wire if IO levels differ.

Note

Both signal pairs cross. Host TX drives the modem's RX, and host RTS drives the modem's CTS on P0.15 - not P0.14, which is the modem's RTS. Wiring either pair straight through leaves the modem's CTS on its internal pull-up, and the only symptom is init_chat_script: timed out on the host while the modem boots and takes reset pulses normally.
