GL-X3000 and 4x4 MIMO antenna (Poynting 5G-XPOL-1-V2-41)

[Stepan]

Hello,

As the title of the topic suggests, I’m looking to use a Poynting 5G-XPOL-1-V2-41 antenna (https://poynting.tech/antennas/xpol-1-5g) with GL-X3000 router, but having trouble figuring out how to connect it correctly. The antenna is 4x4 MIMO and has two pairs of cables, which are labelled:

1. Cell1 Main & Cell 1 AUX/DIV
2. Cell 2 Main & Cell 2 AUX/DIV
   The router, on the other hand, has the following antenna labels:
3. Main
4. MIMO 1
5. MIMO 2
6. DIV/GNSS

Could someone tell me where I can find the necessary information or what the cables’ pairing should be?

I’ve looked through the GL-X3000’s documentation, datasheet, etc, but couldn’t find the answer.

I don’t know much about cellular, but could this help you?

GL-X3000 and 2x2 MIMO antenna

You can connect this Proxicast antenna to the X3000 MAIN and DIV Cellular antenna connectors, and still keep the other two Cellular antenna connectors (MIMO1 and MIMO2) with the original paddle antennas. The reason is LTE signal only uses MAIN and DIV two antennas, but 5GNR signal must use four antennas in some cases.
