HighZer0 AC7265 M.2 Wi-Fi Adapter

This HighZer0 Electronics AC7265 is an NGFF M.2 network card that adds dual-band WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2 to compatible laptops, desktops or industrial systems. It is sold as a new replacement part for hardware already using the Intel Wireless-AC 7265 chipset.

Suits owners of 7265-based systems only

The card requires an NGFF M.2 slot and driver installation on Windows 7 through 11 or Linux kernel 4.1 and newer. It is not for machines lacking an M.2 Key E slot, for buyers who need integrated antenna cables, or for anyone expecting plug-and-play operation without software setup.

Single-bandwidth spec: 867 Mbps on 5 GHz

The 5 GHz radio tops out at 867 Mbps while the 2.4 GHz radio reaches 300 Mbps, giving a combined 1200 Mbps link rate. If your use case demands higher throughput than 867 Mbps on the 5 GHz band, this adapter will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

Does the AC7265 fit a standard NGFF M2 slot on my motherboard?

Yes, the adapter uses the NGFF M2 interface and requires a compatible slot on the motherboard of a laptop, desktop or industrial device.

What driver steps are required when installing the card on Windows 10 64-bit?

Install the card in the NGFF M2 slot, then download and run the Intel Wireless-AC 7265 driver package before the operating system will recognise the WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2 functions.

Will the MHF4 antenna connectors need replacement if the cables wear out?

The card uses MHF4 compatible connectors; replacement pigtails or antennas with MHF4 plugs are available separately if the original cables become damaged.
