M.2 Key-A to Mini PCI-E Adapter

The Vszerda ChenYang adapter converts an M.2 Key-A or Key-A+E NGFF module into a Mini PCI-E slot. It targets builders adding a compatible wireless card to a legacy board that lacks an M.2 socket. The single Key-E interface is explicitly excluded.

Key-A Interface Compatibility

Only M.2 modules with Key-A or Key-A+E notches work; a standalone Key-E card will not fit. The adapter supports hot-plug operation and requires no extra power or driver installation on Windows 7, 8 or 10.

Supported Wireless Cards

Compatible modules include the 7260, 7265, 8260, 8265 and 9260 series as well as the BCM94352Z. The board does not accept SSD, 3G or 4G modules, so storage or cellular upgrades need a different solution.

Questions about this item

How does the Key-A M.2 slot translate to Mini PCI-E bandwidth in a real machine?

The adapter connects a Key-A M.2 card to a Mini PCI-E slot using the PCIe lanes provided by that slot, so throughput is limited to the Mini PCI-E interface speed.

What interface standard does the adapter use and what does it cap in practice?

It uses a Key-A M.2 to PCIe interface; the connection is capped by the Mini PCI-E slot's PCIe lane width and generation.

What physical space and mounting does the adapter need to fit?

It requires a free Mini PCI-E slot and clearance for the M.2 card length; the board mounts with the standard Mini PCI-E screw holes.
