Question Broadcom Pci-e Network Card for PC?

[burninatortech4]

I’ve been tearing apart some old (relatively) Apple time capsules to repurpose their hard drives and I noticed that they have seemingly very capable Broadcom WiFi cards inside. I’m actually in need of a WiFi card for my main rig since my new apartment doesn’t allow for a wired setup and power line adapters aren’t an option (long story). Are there any PCI-e adapters that will allow me to reuse these in a PC? It would suck for them to just be e-waste

The price of Good USB Wireless is so low that it does not make sense to use this card.

The card has no Antenna and probably not a suitable jack to be plugged in. It will cost more money to make it work than Buying this.

I appreciate the input. I'm aware that I could just use a USB adapter. I'm still interested in knowing if it's even possible to use this card.

Well.. you have the clues in the previous post.

Open the computer cover and find if there is a place to plug it. If No Google for adapter.

If yes, Google for cables and antenna that fit this specific card.

That's not a PCI-E connector on it, that I am aware of. GL.
