Please check the chart and image below about which antenna goes to which socket.

The 4G and Wi-Fi antennas have printed marks on their connectors to indicate which ports they attach to for proper configuration. Be sure to connect the antennas to their correctly labeled antenna sockets on the router, as shown in the below image.
To install the antennas, twist the antenna connectors clockwise onto the router until securely fastened. Only twist the connectors—do not excessively turn the antenna bodies, as it could damage the antenna pin or internal wiring.
All the antennas have vertical polarization. Ensure all antennas remain upright vertical once installed on the router for the best possible reception and range.
The flat panels of the 4G paddle antennas have a higher performance. Please adjust the paddle direction towards the outside or signal source to receive a better signal.
To ensure optimal performance of your 4G router, position the device away from potential sources of radio frequency interference, such as microwave ovens, radio transmission equipment, and high-power electrical appliances.
When you have a weak signal reception, please consider upgrading the 4G mobile antenna with a higher-gain antenna. The MIMO panel antenna can point towards the cell tower and receive stronger 4G signals.
To connect to the other mobile or WiFi antennas, make sure these antennas have the standard SMA-male connectors. You can use both a MIMO and a single-polarized antenna on the router. If it's a single-polarized antenna, please connect it to the mobile main socket on the left side.
