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

This Vszerda adapter converts a Key-A or Key-A/E M.2 NGFF wireless card into a Mini PCI Express interface. It is intended for system builders or repair technicians adding Wi-Fi to a desktop or laptop that only accepts Mini PCI-E modules. No extra power or driver installation is required for basic operation.

Key-A or Key-A/E M.2 Card Requirement

The adapter only accepts M.2 cards with a Key-A or Key-A/E notch; a single Key-E card will not fit. Supported modules include 8260NGW, 8265NGW, 7260NGW, 7265NGW and BCM94352Z. The board provides hot-plug capability and plug-and-play behaviour on Windows 7, 8 and 10.

Not for SSD or Cellular Modules

Buyers who want to connect an M.2 solid-state drive or a 3G/4G modem should look elsewhere because the pin-out and keying are incompatible. The converter is also unsuitable for anyone needing a Key-E-only wireless card, as the mechanical key prevents insertion.
