Asus Prime X670-P vertical M.2 Key E bracket

The Asus PRIME X670-P requires a special mounting bracket to vertically mount a WiFi card. While the manual states "The M.2 Wi-Fi module and vertical M.2 Key E bracket set are purchased separately.", it can (currently) not be purchased.

To mount a Intel AX210 (without an additional PCIe adapter card), a simple bracket was designed. It requires:

• Intel AX210 (or similar sized card - like the AC 7265 in the pictures)

• 2x MHF4-to-RP-SMA pigtail

• 2x M2.5x6 screws (to attach the bracket to the mainboard)

• 1x M2.5x8 screw (to attach the M.2 card to the bracket)

• 3x M2.5 nuts

The easiest way to install the card is to perform following steps while the mainboard is not yet installed in a case:

• put M2.5x6 screws through the lower mounting holes

• attach 2x MHF4-to-RP-SMA pigtail to the sidewall (including nuts)

• put M2.5x8 screw through the top hole

• put Intel AX210 between top screw and the mounting bracket and fixate it using one M2.5 nut

• put bracket with AX210 in the right place on the mainboard and attach M2.5 nuts on the mounting screws

• attach pigtails to MHF4 socket

• put mainboard in case

• attach antennas

There is also a version without (RP-)SMA mounting sidewall - which was not used at the end but might still be useful for some persons.
