M.2 Key B to Mini PCI-E Adapter for WWAN Modules

This Vszerda N42203 adapter lets you install an M.2 Key B WWAN module into a full-size or half-size Mini PCI-E slot. It carries the USB interface from the module to the host system and supports 3042 and 3052 form factors. No extra power is needed and a screw kit is included.

For adding cellular or GNSS cards to Mini PCI-E

Suits builders who want to use 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, GPS or WiMAX modules with a USB interface in a laptop or desktop that only has an mPCIe slot. Not for users who need PCIe lane connectivity or who are fitting M.2 Key M or Key E cards.

USB-only signal path through the M.2 Key B connector

The adapter passes USB signals from a Socket 2 SSIC-based WWAN card to the Mini PCI-E edge connector. This single interface decision determines whether your module will function.

Questions about this item

Will this adapter let me keep using my existing full-size mPCIe slot with a new M.2 3042 or 3052 Key B module?

Yes, it supports both full-size and half-size mPCIe slots and accepts 3042/3052 type M.2 Key B cards over USB.

How can I confirm the M.2 WWAN module is recognised after installing the adapter?

The host system should enumerate the module as a USB device; check Device Manager or lsusb for the modem interface.

What comes in the box and is anything else needed to mount the M.2 card?

The package includes the adapter, four M2 mounting screws and a screwdriver; no extra parts are required.
