The MP2W passive adapter is designed for desktop PCs that convert Mini-Card to USB port or standard PCI-Express 1× slot. You can insert your USB type minicard to this adapter then plug to USB port through USB cable, or insert your PCI-E type mini-card into this adapter then insert to PCI-E 1× connector. This uses RP-SMA connectors which are common on WLAN modules.

• Allows user to test PCI Express Mini modules on the PCI Express slot
• Supports two primary system bus interface: PCI Express and USB
• Supports u.FL/IPEX to RP-SMA pigtail Wi-Fi RF cable adapter (optional)
