Intel 7260 dual-band Wi-Fi adapter

This Intel 7260 M.2 module delivers dual-band 802.11ac wireless connectivity with up to 867 Mbps data rates. It operates on 2.4 and 5 GHz bands using a 2x2 stream configuration and includes Bluetooth 4.0 support. The adapter targets laptops or small-form-factor desktops needing integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in a single slot.

Check Mini-PCIE slot and antenna connectors

Verify that your motherboard or laptop provides a Mini-PCIE slot wired for PCIe and USB signals, as the adapter uses both interfaces. Ensure two U.FL or IPEX antenna pigtails are present for the 2x2 MIMO design. Confirm your operating system includes drivers for the 7260 chipset or plan to install them from Intel.

Bundled software enables hotspot

Intel Wi-Fi HotSpot Assistant lets the adapter share a wired connection as a wireless access point. Intel Wireless Display supports screen mirroring to compatible receivers without cables. Intel Smart Connect Technology refreshes email and social feeds while the system sleeps. Business Class Wireless Suite adds enterprise-grade management and security tools.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy antennas or cables separately?

The adapter is supplied in a brown box; antenna cables and antennas are not included and must be sourced separately for the 2x2 MIMO configuration.

Should I choose the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz band for the 867 Mbps link rate?

The 867 Mbps maximum is only available on the 5 GHz band using 802.11ac; the 2.4 GHz band operates under older standards at lower rates.

Will I actually see 867 Mbps throughput on my laptop?

867 Mbps is the PHY link rate under ideal conditions; real-world throughput is lower due to overhead, distance, interference and the host system capabilities.
