Wireless Network Adapters
Wireless Network Adapters
Add Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity to almost any computer with a wireless network adapter from Overclockers UK. Explore a wide range of products from manufacturers including ASUS, Gigabyte, TP-Link, and ADDON. Wireless network adapters are available as either internal expansion cards or a USB dongle, perfect for upgrading a PC with either a free expansion slot or a USB port. Many adapters allow your PC to access Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or even both! Each type of wireless adapter offers different advantages, with internal wireless network adapters generally delivering more powerful connections, whilst external adapters are far more convenient to use.
Types of Wireless Network Adapters
Internal wireless network adapters are small expansion cards that come with either a PCI or PCIe interface. What’s more, they generally come equipped with both a low-profile and standard bracket meaning they can be installed in a wide variety of builds, including small form factor PCs. Alongside this, as the wireless antennas are generally removable, you can safely transport your PC without worrying about damaging your network connection.
A USB network adapter, otherwise known as a dongle, is a simple plug-and-play method to add wireless connectivity to a computer. For the best performance from a USB wireless network adapter, you will require at least a 5Gbps USB port. These network adapters can differ in size, from nano adapters that barely protrude to larger models that feature extendable antennas.
