Asus PCE-AC51

Dual-band Wi-Fi adapter with support for the latest standards up to Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), designed for installation in the motherboard of a stationary personal computer. Made as a separate board, installed in a standard PCI-E slot x1, x2, x8, or x16. Has 100% compatibility with all modern motherboards. It is positioned as a simple and performant product of the initial price category, designed to connect a PC to a wireless router or access point located at a considerable distance.

Such Wi-Fi adapters allow you to create a modern wireless local area network without the need for cabling. It compares favorably with cheap USB models of similar devices by the possibility of stable operation in two frequency bands (2.4 and 5 GHz) and support for MIMO 2: 2x2 multi-stream data transfer technology (only in the 802.11n 2.4 GHz network). Equipped with two detachable rotary dipole antennas with a gain of 5 dBi, which allows you to adjust their position in relation to the router / access point. It has half the standard PCB height and comes with a low-profile bracket for installation in ultra-compact mini-ITX cases, which allows this adapter to be used in HTPC systems. Supports current security protocols and traffic encryption.
