First of all, I forgot one question regarding the IF SAW filters.
TB0130A has at least 10dB higher rejection at 0.6-0.9MHz offset band (65dB) than TB448A (55dB), and 20dB higher rejection at 0.9-1.5MHz offset band (75dB instead of 55dB).
Moreover, TB0130A has more flatter and wider passband, approx 300kHz at 0.5dB instead of 250kHz for TB448A, it is better because of this type SAW has thermal drift approx +-32 kHz for +-50'C relative to +25'C.
In other hand, TB448A has better group delay ripples, but I don't how it critical for GMSK, and I'm sure that symmetry law more important.
Also we can adjust central IF for 3-5 temperature points, but in this case we need to add thermal measurements, and let we try to avoid it.

Hi Alexander.
Actualy I don't know side-type connectors for cable.
I suggested you PCB side connector (like PCI) for debugging only.
Moreover, there are a lot SMD connectors for IDC flat cable, BHS-10 for example.
Best regards,
Andrey Sviyazov.

IDC connectors on a UmTRX and on a RF board will be connected with a
flat ribbon cable?
Why don't you want to use a side connector?
