PEX-MP117 Mini PCIe to PCIe x1 Adapter Card for WiFi, LTE & WWAN Modules - Mini PCI Express Test/Development Adapter for Desktop PC

I used this adapter card to mount a Coral TPU into a server. It was easy to install and has been working reliably for several years.

This product is working great with my Coral Mini PCIe Google Edge TPU ML Accelerator (G650-04528-01). Came with the 2 screws necessary to hold down the Mini PCIe card. Only complaint is that the bracket comes with 2 holes that are for use with Wi-Fi antennas, but I won't be using them. It would be nice if there were some kind of rubber plug or something to block them with.

I'm using it to run an Intel 9260 m.2 wifi module with an m.2 to mini-pcie adapter to this board. The 9260 is powered by the PCIE, so I didn't have to mess with the jumpers - The jumpers appear to change where the power comes from (5v from USB or the default of 3.3v from PCIE). I hooked up a female to female usb 2.0 cable to my motherboard, and both the bluetooth (USB) and the wifi (PCIE) from the card work great. It's low profile, has the required screws, and most importantly it works.

Nicely designed unit, especially if you need a usb connection for bluetooth. Has 3 voltage regulators to get all the proper voltages needed for mini-pci (even though most cards really only need 3.3V). A bit on the pricey side.

Perfect for converting a mini pci Google Coral TPU to PCIe x1! I'm using mine with Frigate. This conversion card is especially nice because it includes the proper mounting holes, screws, and has a smaller height metal mounting bracket in addition to the standard height one. (My OptiPlex mini uses the smaller height one.)

Headline says it all. Key words being Google Coral mini PCIe & Linux. Includes screws for the Coral and plugs into a PCIe slot on the motherboard. This card was double the price of others but it was in stock.

Having built my own PFSense router using a small form factor PC, I was looking for a way to add wireless to the router as a tertiary backup for WAN connectivity. Unfortunately pfSense (running on FreeBSD) has close to zero support for wireless cards. The few it does support are Mini PCI-E cards. So, I purchased a supported Mini PCI-E wireless card (from a company in France, actually) and used this adapter to install it in the desktop. The fact that this has a SFF plate is clutch, and is why I went this this adapter rather than so many others available.

didn't work

Works as intended with no hassle extra drivers etc

Ein Coral USB Stick hatte eine zweimonatige Lieferzeit. Also habe ich eine Coral TPU miniPCI-Karte gekauft. Diese passte natürlich in keinen meiner Computer. Also brauchte ich einen Adapter. Dieser Ableconn Adapter funktionierte sofort. Auch mit Proxmox.
