Installing the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Card
- Step 1: Install the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card in a PCI Express x1 slot. Connect one end of the USB cable to the USB connector on the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card.
- Step 2: Connect the other end of the USB cable to the F_USB connector on the motherboard.
- Step 3: Tighten the antenna cables to the antenna connectors on the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card respectively.
- Step 4: Then move the antennas to a place where the signal is good.
Installing the Drivers and Utilities

- FCC Compliance Statement: This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, Subpart B, Unintentional Radiators.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Canadian Department of Communications Statement
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise
emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations
of the Canadian Department of Communications. This class B digital apparatus
complies with Canadian ICES-003.
