Here are what you should do

  1. Find two 4G antenna which comes with a short uFL to SMA wire and antenna stick.
  2. Open the case the connec the uFL to the 4G module.
  3. Mount the the SMA to the case. You will find two holes on the side of the case. You need to take the two small fans aways from the holes and fix the SMA connect there.
