1265 (RH-103)
Antenna Description and Troubleshooting

PIFA Antenna

The internal antenna has a planar-inverted F antenna (PIFA) radiator attached to the
plastic carrier. An integrated hand-free (IHF) mini speaker is integrated inside the plastic
carrier.

Damaged RF feed point or Ground Pad

The two pads of the antenna must properly connect the PWB.
If the main antenna's RF feed pad does not touch the PWB, the antenna
gain degrades by more than 17 dB.
If the ground pad of the main antenna does not touch the PWB, the
antenna gain degrades from 0.5 to 1 dB.
If either the RF feed pad or ground pad are broken, covered or removed,
such that either pin does not touch the PWB, replace the SAM Module.
If either the RF pin or ground pin springs appear damaged, replace the
SAM Module.
