Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 - Wireless network adapter

The Intel Wi‑Fi 6 AX201 (AX201.NGWG.NVW) M.2 2230 2x2 Wireless Adapter with Bluetooth 5.2 provides networking for compatible PCs and laptops. This internal module connects via an M.2 CNVio2 interface, which requires a motherboard with specific Intel support. It uses the Wi‑Fi 6 (802.11ax) protocol to improve network efficiency and reduce latency in crowded environments. When paired with a compatible router, the adapter supports data transfer rates of up to 2400 Mbit/s, sufficient for large file transfers and local network streaming.

The card includes Bluetooth 5.2 for connecting peripherals. Wireless headsets, mice, and keyboards can pair directly with the host machine, removing the need for a separate USB receiver. The hardware uses the M.2 2230 form factor, fitting into standard laptop chassis and compact desktop motherboards. It is compatible with Windows 10 (64-bit) and Linux. As this is a wireless module, it does not provide Ethernet LAN connectivity.
