• 

Place antennas in an unobstructed area with 
clear LTE signal. Avoid metal boxes, brick walls, 
and other dense materials. Use the web interface 
to confirm signal strength before permanent
installation.

• 

Visually inspect the power connector and make 
sure that it is fully secure.

• 

Do not stack any devices on top of the modem.

Attach the External Antennas

Figure 4: Attaching External Antennas

The DWM-311 requires two external antennas 
to function correctly. The included antennas are 
interchangeable, but third party antennas may 
require connection to specific ports.

1.  Attach the antennas to the included magnetic 

mounts. Turn the hex nut clockwise to fasten the 
antenna.

Figure 5: Attaching Antenna to Magnetic Mount

2.  Place antennas where they will receive optimal 

signal. Arrange them so they point upward. 

Figure 6: Attaching Antenna to Modem

3.  Once the antennas are placed, attach both 

antenna cables to the DWM-311’s external SMA 
connectors, labelled DIV and PRI. Turn the hexnut 
clockwise to secure the cables.

Note:

 The included antennas are interchangeable. 

Third party antennas may require connection to 
specific ports.

Powering the Modem

The modem can be powered either directly via 
mini-USB or via Power over Ethernet (PoE) using a 
PoE splitter.

Using included Mini-USB cable

Use the included mini-USB cable to power the 
modem. Attach the USB connector to the included 
AC adaptor. Attach the AC adaptor to a wall socket. 
Insert the mini-USB connector into the port on the 
modem labelled with the   symbol. The power LED 
will turn green to indicate the modem is receiving 
power.

Using PoE

The DWM-311 can be powered via Power over 
Ethernet (PoE) by connecting the included 5.5 mm 
DC to mini-USB adaptor to a PoE splitter. This may be 
useful when long cable lengths required. Standard 
PoE has a range of up to 330 ft (100 m). The following 
steps outline setting up the modem with a PoE 
Splitter/Injector kit (sold separately).
