Antenna Connectors

The NUC 12 Extreme / Pro X Kit wireless module has front and rear panel internal antennas that connect to the NUC 12 Extreme / Pro X Compute Element MMCX style connectors. For wireless and Bluetooth operation appropriate antennas will be required. Figure 13 shows the location of the two antenna connectors on the NUC 12 Extreme / Pro X Compute Element

Figure 13. Location of the Antenna Connectors

The wireless module on the NUC 12 Extreme / Pro X Compute element is the Intel WIFI 6E AX211NGW and uses a standard 2x2 mm size RF micro coaxial receptacle (connector) with an outer diameter of 1.5 mm as defined in the PCI-E M.2 Specification, the coaxial receptacle is then changed to the MMCX Micromate style connector for more robust connection in chassis.
