Hi. Not looking to buy right now, but had a question about these cards. The antenna which you have posted at the bottom, is it required only for Wi-Fi or even for Bluetooth?

Let's say I had one of these cards and only wanted to use Bluetooth, would I need the antenna as well?

If you want to use only WiFi then plug the connector in MAIN 2 (left one) and if you just want to use bluetooth then plug connector in AUX 1 (right one)




Received payment from @ibose for 2x Mediatek MT7921 + 2x AX200 + 2x Desktop Antenna Kit

As said by mzsa, that was true for old pcie based wifi cards.
For most new m.2 form factor cards, the one signified with a black arrow is for 2.4Ghz and supports both wifi and Bluetooth, the other one with the white arrow is for 5Ghz and is used only by the 5Ghz wifi.

Usually the black arrow is referenced as Main and the white arrow as Aux, but they can be reversed on certain wifi cards. The white cable connects to the ipex connector marked by the white arrow and the black cable connects to the ipex connector marked by the black arrow. Not exactly sure what happens if you flip them.
 
Can AX200 be considered an upgrade/equivalent of MT7921, apart from the 6E Wifi in Mediatek card? I understand that AX201 will work only on intel machines.

I am not sure I have used both the cards in my PC and I haven't noticed any difference.
P.S: I have not used any of the above card with a WiFi-6 router.

Thank you @mzsa1994 for correcting me, sorry for the misinformation.

I have had experience with only one wifi card and it had wifi and wifi/bt written on it, and on disconnecting one, only 5ghz wifi worked and on disconnecting the other wifi 2.4G and Bluetooth worked.

Mt7921 is wifi 6. It has a variant called mt7921e, which supports wifi 6e
 
Picked up one Intel AX200 and a set of antennas. The card is already here and working absolutely fine (tested on a laptop), while the antenna kit is on its way.

Hi,
My Asus tuf a15 2020 is facing wifi issues. The Realtek 8822CE card stops working anytime. Is there any solution or do I need to replace the wifi card itself? If yes, is the Intel ax200 compatible with it?
