Wireless NIC for Jetson Orin

This MCDODO AC8265 module adds dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2 to Jetson Orin Nano and NX developer boards. It uses an NGFF M.2 interface and connects antennas through IPEX connectors. Supported operating systems include Linux and Windows 10 down to Windows 7. The board measures 22mm by 30mm by 2.4mm.

Check compatibility before ordering

The module is not compatible with the Jetson Nano 2GB Developer Kit. Verify that your carrier board exposes an M.2 slot with the correct keying and that you have IPEX antennas or pigtails available. Ensure the target OS is listed in the supported range. No driver media is included; Linux kernels usually provide support.

Upgrade from no wireless or single-band

This replaces a missing or single-band wireless link with 2.4GHz at 300Mbps and 5GHz at 867Mbps under 802.11ac. The jump is worth it when you need simultaneous Bluetooth 4.2 and dual-band Wi-Fi on an Orin Nano or NX without USB dongles. It does not suit boards lacking an M.2 slot or projects that require newer Bluetooth versions.

Questions about this item

Does the MCDODO AC8265 module ship with antennas or must I buy IPEX antennas separately?

The module has IPEX connectors for antennas; antennas are not included and must be purchased separately.

Which Jetson boards is the AC8265 module compatible with?

The AC8265 module supports Jetson Orin Nano and Jetson Orin NX; the Jetson Nano 2GB Developer Kit is not supported.

What Wi-Fi throughput can I expect from the 867 Mbps link rate on the 5 GHz band?

The 5 GHz band offers an 867 Mbps PHY rate under 802.11ac; real-world throughput will be lower due to overhead and signal conditions.
