NGFF M.2 Key A to PCIe x1 Adapter

This adapter converts an NGFF M.2 Key A Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card to a PCIe x1 slot for desktop installation. It ships with two 5 dBi antennas, high and low-profile brackets, screws, a screwdriver, a USB cable and a manual. The card itself is not included.

Builders adding wireless to a desktop via PCIe

Suitable for system integrators and upgraders who already own a compatible NGFF M.2 Key A module and need a bracket-mounted solution with external antennas. Not for users who require a Key B, Key M or Key E interface, nor for those expecting an integrated Wi-Fi controller on the board.

Key A interface compatibility

The adapter only accepts modules with an NGFF M.2 Key A edge connector, so the installed card must match that keying exactly. Verify the module’s key type before purchase to ensure mechanical and electrical fit.

Questions about this item

How do I install the M.2 Key A Wi-Fi card onto this PCIe x1 adapter?

Insert the M.2 Key A card into the adapter's slot at an angle, press down, and secure it with the supplied screw; then plug the adapter into a PCIe x1 slot, attach the chosen I/O bracket, connect the antennas, and link the USB cable for Bluetooth.

What parts might need replacement after extended use?

The two 5 dBi antennas, the USB cable, or the mounting screws can wear or be lost; the adapter board itself has no moving parts and typically does not require replacement.

What is the first bottleneck under continuous heavy wireless traffic?

The PCIe 1x link sets the maximum data rate, so sustained throughput cannot exceed the bandwidth of a single PCIe lane.
