Yes. The 5 that Airstream provides is enough. The other 2 are for Wi-Fi that you can keep using the antennas directly in the modem.

There is a post above — #91 that lists the purpose for each wire.

The modem works fine. Since there are 4 SIM card slots and I only use 2, the additional two antenna ports were redundant. I however attached the factory plastic antennas in those two ports.

So far everything is working fine!
Thank you for this. I am thinking of doing this on my 2021 GT 25FBT. Do you have to splice the wires or do the connections on the Airstream plug right into the antenna wires?

Our boondocking, there was still a hooks signal for the MIMO to access where the phone lacking antennas, or just being inside could not. If you were far enough out where you couldn’t receive a signal on either, that’s where the booster shines. I spent a lot of time working through this with MMH.
With each specific router ( at least with Pepwave ) there is a mandatory rooftop antennae install connection required vs using small paddle antenna.
There was a marked difference for me using what I thought would be best connection vs following pepwaves instructions w/ my specific model of router

link / instructions were on TecnoRV site or Pepwave forum This link explains my basic idea in more detail and has screen grab of release notes to explain each router sub model
