Dell Mini PCI-E to USB Adapter

This Dell adapter converts a Mini PCI-E WWAN card with a USB bus interface into a standard USB connection for desktop or embedded systems. It accepts 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE, GPS and similar modem modules that communicate over USB rather than PCI-E. A SIM card slot with 6-pin or 8-pin support allows direct carrier connectivity. The unit weighs 0.021 kilograms.

Check your card and host port

Verify that your Mini-Card uses a USB bus interface; PCI-E based Wi-Fi or WLAN modules will not function with this adapter. Ensure the host system has an available USB port for the adapter's Connector B. Install the appropriate software drivers for your specific WWAN module before use, as the adapter itself requires no drivers. The package includes a single adapter weighing 0.021 kilograms.

Build integration

The adapter draws power directly from the USB port, so no external supply is needed. It supports Plug & Play and hot-swapping across Windows, WinCE, Linux and macOS. By converting the Mini-Card to USB, it frees the Mini PCI-E slot for other uses or enables WWAN functionality on systems lacking that slot. Only USB-bus Mini-Cards such as GSM, HSPA, GPS or LTE modules are compatible.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need anything else to use this Dell Mini PCI-E to USB adapter?

The package contains one adapter weighing .021 kg. You must supply a USB-bus Mini-Card such as a 3G, 4G, LTE, GPS or GSM module and a standard SIM card; PCI-E bus cards like Wi-Fi modules are not supported.

Which Mini-Card versions or interfaces work with this adapter?

Only USB-bus Mini-Cards are compatible — 2G GSM, GPRS, 3G, HSPA 3.5G, CDMA, WLAN, WWLAN, GPS, 4G WiMAX, LTE and similar modem or GPS cards. PCI-E bus cards such as Wi-Fi modules will not function.

What does the 30-pin connector mean when the adapter is installed in a desktop?

The 30-pin Mini PCI-E edge connector mates with the card, while the USB-A plug connects to the host. The adapter bridges the card's USB interface to the desktop USB port, enabling Plug & Play and hot-swap operation without extra power.
