Dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0

This Intel 3165NGW card adds dual-band wireless LAN and Bluetooth 4.0 to a compatible notebook. It uses an M.2 slot with PCIe interface and delivers a downstream data rate of 433 MB/s over 802.11ac. The module is supplied new and includes the card only.

Questions about this item

Does the Intel 3165NGW package include antenna cables or mounting screws, or must they be sourced separately?

The box contains only the M.2 Wi-Fi card itself. Antenna cables, mounting screws and any required brackets are not included and must be obtained separately.

Should I choose the dual-band 433 Mbps 802.11ac version or a single-band alternative for my Dell OptiPlex 3050 AIO?

The 3165NGW is a dual-band 433 Mbps 802.11ac card with Bluetooth 4.0 and is listed as compatible with the OptiPlex 3050 AIO, so this version matches that system.

What real-world throughput can I expect from the 433 Mbps 802.11ac link once the card is installed in a laptop?

The 433 Mbps figure is the maximum PHY rate; actual throughput will be lower due to overhead, distance up to 15 m, interference and the capabilities of the access point.
