    Hello,

    I've looked all over but can't seem to find any information or pictures online. I need to know which of the included WWAN cables is the MAIN and which is the AUX. There are two capped cables inside the empty WWAN bay, one is black/grey the other is white/grey. If anyone could tell me which for sure is the MAIN, that would be super!

    If no one has this information, do you think I'd be wasting my time trying to ask technical support at Dell?

    Thank you very much,
    Mark~

    Connect the black antenna cable with a gray stripe to the connector labeled "aux" (black triangle), and connect the white antenna cable with a gray stripe to the connector labeled "main" (white triangle).
