Fervit 2230 E-Key to 2242 Male-Female Extension Adapter

SKU CH-NG6H-11JM5

Extends a 2230 B-Key wireless card to 2242 length while protecting its contacts, supporting WIFI6 and WIFI7 modules

  • Protects wireless card contacts during installation
  • Extends 2230 E-Key or A+E-Key cards to 2242 length
  • Supports WIFI6 and WIFI7 wireless modules
  • E-key pinout only, incompatible with B-key, M-key, A-key or mini-PCIe
  • PCB adapter only, wireless card not included

Purpose and compatibility

This Fervit adapter extends a 2230 E-Key or A+E-Key wireless card to a 2242 form factor. It protects the card contacts during installation and supports WIFI6 and WIFI7 modules. The board uses an E-key pinout only and will not work with B-key, M-key, A-key or mini-PCIe devices. The package contains the PCB adapter alone; no wireless card is included.

Thermals noise and power

The adapter is a passive PCB with no active components, so it adds no heat, noise or measurable power draw to the system. Signal integrity is maintained across the short extension without requiring additional cooling or power budget. It simply bridges the existing slot and card without altering the thermal profile of the wireless module.

Build and daily use

Gold-plated edge connectors resist oxidation and ensure reliable mating cycles when cards are swapped. The rigid FR4 substrate keeps the 2230 card aligned with the 2242 slot, preventing flex that could damage contacts. Because the adapter only re-routes E-key signals, it fits any M.2 E-key socket wired for 2230 or 2242 devices, making it a practical spare for repair or upgrade work.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Fervit 2230 E-Key adapter and what step is often missed?

Align the male connector with the motherboard's E-Key slot and press down firmly until the notch engages, then secure the 2242 female end with the mounting screw — the step often missed is confirming the motherboard slot is E-Key, not B-Key or M-Key, before insertion

What maintenance or replacement will this adapter need over time?

The PCB has no moving parts and requires no scheduled maintenance; replace it only if the gold contacts show visible wear or corrosion after repeated card swaps

What limit appears first under sustained use with a WIFI6 or WIFI7 card?

Thermal throttling of the wireless card itself is the first limit — the adapter adds no active cooling, so prolonged high throughput can raise card temperature until the controller reduces power
