I need to add a Wlan on PCIe Add-in-card for Precision 3650 Tower that will handle Wifi and Bluetooth capabilities.
My questions are :
Dell Part number for this Wlan on PCIe Add-in-card. Service Specs for this module have either
Intel® Wi-Fi 6 AX210 802.11ax Dual Band (2x2) Wireless Module + Bluetooth 5.2 or Qualcomm® QCA6174A 802.11ac Dual Band (2x2) Wireless + Bluetooth 5.0 LE M.2, w/Internal Antenna wifi card.
Where to plug the Bluetooth connection on the motherboard. It looks like it is CAC_PIV but I am not sure.
You may have difficulty sourcing the AIC Wireless card from Dell. It's actually cheaper to source the Intel AX210 desktop kit from the big online shopping site.
For installation, connect the AIC cable to CAC_PIV power connector (#21 on system board layout). Just align the keyed pin on the connector to the missing pin on header.
WiFi Card, Ubit Tri-Band 5400Mbps WiFi 6E 6GHz PCIe WiFi Card, BT 5.2, AX210 Wireless WLAN Adapter with MU-MIMO,OFDMA,Ultra-Low Latency
I got both WIFI and Bluetooth!
The critical information missing before your reply was "For installation, connect the AIC cable to CAC_PIV power connector (#21 on system board layout). Just align the keyed pin on the connector to the missing pin on header."
