802.11ax Wi-Fi 6E + BT Module

is motherboard comes with an exclusive 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax Wi-Fi 6E + BT module

that oers support for 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax Wi-Fi 6E connectivity standards and

Bluetooth. Wi-Fi 6E + BT module is an easy-to-use wireless local area network (WLAN)

adapter to support Wi-Fi 6E + BT. Bluetooth standard features Smart Ready technology

that adds a whole new class of functionality into the mobile devices. BT also includes

Low Energy Technology and ensures extraordinary low power consumption for PCs.

* e transmission speed may vary according to the environment.

* Wi-Fi 6E (6GHz band) will be supported by Microso® Windows® 11. e availability

will depend on the dierent regulation status of each country and region. It will be

activated (for supported countries) through Windows Update and soware updates

WiFi Antennas Installation Guide

Step 1

Prepare the WiFi 2.4/5/6 GHz Antennas that

come with the package.

Step 2

Connect the two WiFi 2.4/5/6 GHz Antennas

to the antenna connectors. Turn the antenna

clockwise until it is securely connected.

Step 3

Set the WiFi 2.4/5/6 GHz Antenna as shown in

the illustration.

*You may need to adjust the direction of

the antenna for a stronger signal.

Chapter 2 Installation

is is a Micro ATX form factor motherboard. Before you install the motherboard,

study the conguration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard ts into it.

Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components

or change any motherboard settings.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before insta lling or removing the motherboard

•

components. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries and damages to motherboard

components.

In order to avoid damage from static electricity to the motherboard’s components,

•

NEVER place your motherboard directly on a carpet. Also remember to use a grounded

wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle the components.

Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

•

Whenever you uninstall any components, place them on a grounded anti-static pad or

•

in the bag that comes with the components.

When placing screws to secure the motherboard to the chassis, please do not over-

•

tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

2.1 Installing the CPU

1. Be fore you inser t the 1718-Pin CPU into the socket , please check if the PnP cap is on the
socket, if the CPU surface is unclean , or if there are any bent pins in the socket. Do not
force to in sert the CPU into the socket if above situation is found. Otherwise, the CPU
will be seriously damaged.

2. Unplug all power cables before installing the CPU.
