Attention:        Application Examiner

RE:               Request for confidentiality per FCC Rule Sections 0.457 and 0.459
Applicant:        Silver Spring Networks Inc.
FCC ID:           OWS-NIC44
IC:               5975A-NIC44
Model No.:        NIC44


To whom it may concern,

Request is hereby submitted, on behalf of my client Silver Spring Networks to withhold from public
review indefinitely certain portions of the application for equipment certification for the referenced FCC
identifier. The referenced product is a 900MHz FHSS radio module for which limited modular approval is
sought. In particular, the following sections of the application and report are requested to be kept
confidential:

         Operational Description
         Schematic
         Block Diagram
         Internal photographs

Justification for requesting confidentiality of internal photographs:

The referenced product is sold only to power utilities and is not available on the general market. The
product will be located on utility property, either on power poles or inside the building. It will not be
available for public inspection. The unit has no user serviceable parts, servicing is done by Silver Spring
Networks.

Silver Spring Networks has invested considerable time and materials in research and development to
produce the referenced product. Disclosure of the confidential portions of this application to competitors
would give them competitive advantage in developing similar products.

If you have questions or need further information, please contact the undersigned.

Sincerely,




THOMAS N. COKENIAS
EMC Consultant/Agent for Silver Spring Networks
