Dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5 card

The GIGABYTE GC-WB1733D-I adds wireless networking and Bluetooth 5 to a desktop PC through a single expansion slot. It is built around the Intel Wireless-AC 9260 module and targets builders who want integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth without using a USB port. The card supports IEEE 802.11ac with wave 2 features for compatible routers.

Sustained throughput with 2Tx2R antenna design

The antenna supports WLAN 2Tx2R transmission to maintain high speed wireless connection up to 1733 Mbps during extended transfers. Wave 2 capabilities such as WMM-PS and Protected Management Frames help preserve throughput when multiple devices share the channel. Fine Timing Measurement based on 802.11REVmc adds precise timing for dense environments.

PCIe mounting with external antenna leads

The card installs in an available PCI Express slot and routes antenna cables to the rear bracket for flexible placement. Supported standards include IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac plus 802.11d, e, h, i, w, r, k for broad router compatibility. Security covers WPA, WPA2 and 802.1X with multiple EAP methods, plus Wi-Fi Direct and Miracast source support. Builders needing wired Ethernet or a second radio should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Intel Wireless-AC 9260 draw when the card runs at 1733 Mbps all day?

The Intel Wireless-AC 9260 is a low-power module designed for PCIe slots, so typical draw stays well within the slot limit even at sustained 1733 Mbps throughput.

Which antenna connectors must my chassis already provide for the 2Tx2R WLAN setup?

The card ships with two RP-SMA pigtails, so your case or bracket needs two matching antenna mounts for full 2Tx2R operation.

Will the GC-WB1733D-I coexist with an older 802.11n PCIe card in the same system?

Yes, it uses a separate PCIe lane and the Intel 9260 driver stack, so it runs alongside legacy 802.11n adapters without resource conflicts.
