Test 25 Antennas for a PO of 4999pcs or less Test 50 Antennas for a PO between 5000pcs & 9999pcs Test 100 Antennas for a PO of 10,000pcs or more Note: If 1 piece fails, then the factory will test additional 2 sample lots for possible failures. If additional failures are detected in these 2 sample lots, then the full lot will be 100% tested. Test #2: Conductivity Test The Conductivity Test is different from the VSWR Test. It’s a quick Go-No Go test to find out whether the Antenna is dead or alive. The Antenna will be placed flat on a Styrofoam piece, the connector will be plugged to a VNA and the VSWR response will be observed. The antenna will be flexed at different locations while observing the VSWR response. If the response looks smooth & normal (as expected) then it’s a PASS. If there is no response or if it’s Jittery/abnormal then it’s a FAILURE & the Antenna will be rejected. 100% of the Antennas will be subjected to the Conductivity Test WP Wireless — A Division of World Products LLC. || 19656 Eighth Street East || Sonoma, CA, 95476, USA [O]: +1-707-996-5201 || [F]: +1-707-996-3380 || [E]: sales@wp-wireless.com || [W]: www.wp-wireless.com Page 7 of 8 Rev: 1.0 st Created on: July 21 2010 Created by: TT Approved by: BP WPANT40015-CB ISM Dual Band Coupler Antenna For Electric Meter Client: Silverspring Networks Client P/N : 320-000033 WP Wireless P/N : Rev#2 WPANT40015-CB Customer Approval Signature: ____________________ Customer Name: ____________________ Title: ____________________ Approval Date: ____________________ WP Wireless Engineering Approval: Brad Podduturi Date Approved: 07/21/10 WP Wireless — A Division of World Products LLC. || 19656 Eighth Street East || Sonoma, CA, 95476, USA [O]: +1-707-996-5201 || [F]: +1-707-996-3380 || [E]: sales@wp-wireless.com || [W]: www.wp-wireless.com Page 8 of 8 Rev: 1.0 st Created on: July 21 2010 Created by: TT Approved by: BP
