ThinkStation Wi-Fi 6E AX211 module

This Lenovo network card adds Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 to compatible ThinkStation workstations. It uses the Intel AX211 adapter with a 2x2 antenna configuration for dual-band wireless connectivity. The module supports 802.11ax R2 operation with 160 MHz channel width on both bands. It is designed for professionals who need modern wireless performance on supported desktop systems.

SoC-integrated architecture

The adapter splits Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radio blocks between an integrated MAC in the Intel SoC and a separate PHY/RF companion module. Two RF chains handle Wi-Fi traffic while one chain shares an antenna with the Bluetooth connection. An external antenna kit is included to optimise signal placement around the workstation chassis. This build targets reliable daily connectivity in office environments.

Broad OS support for managed deployments

The module offers full driver support for Windows 10, Windows 11, Linux and Chrome OS. Bluetooth audio offload is supported to reduce system load during calls or media playback. Compatibility is limited to specific ThinkStation models, so buyers must verify their workstation accepts this module. It does not suit builders needing a universal add-in card for non-Lenovo platforms.
