antenna as example. For 5G 4-IN-1 combo antenna, LHM# cable need to be connected to ANT1 and ANT2
while the MH# cable need to be connected to ANT0 and ANT3. GPS function is available when using the 4 in 1
combo antenna.
3. Terminal Block Installation. Insert the 2x5PIN terminal blocks into the interfaces connector, then can connect
the devices or sensors to the gateway via corresponding interfaces e.g. RS232/RS485, DIDO...
4. Mounting Kit installation.
