ID: 199466

Description:

Steps:

  1. Hold the Wi-Fi module down with your finger.
  2. Position the white antenna cable connector over the left Wi-Fi module's coaxial socket.
  3. If you're unsure which cable goes where, refer to the arrows on the Wi-Fi module for which color cable matches with its connector.
  4. Tweezers can help position the connector.
  5. Use your finger to press the connector into place. You should feel a faint click, and the cable will stay attached to the socket by itself.
  6. These connectors are very delicate! If the connector doesn't feel like it's clicking in place, reposition the connector and try again.
  7. Repeat the procedure with the black antenna cable.
