There are a few options that are known to work here. However AirMagnet does not certify any of them. One of them is the DuelAdapter™ converter. that converts input from PCMCIA cards to an Express Card compatible format. AirMagnet users can continue using AirMagnet products on laptops that only include the Express Card slots. Also laptops with both slot formats (Express Card and PCMCIA) and no internal Wi-Fi cards, can use this adapter for AirMagnet Spectrum Analyzer integration with AirMagnet WiFi Analyzer PRO and AirMagnet Survey PRO.

There are a few options that are known to work here. However AirMagnet does not certify any of them. One of them is the DuelAdapter™ converter. that converts input from PCMCIA cards to an Express Card compatible format. AirMagnet users can continue using AirMagnet products on laptops that only include the Express Card slots. Also laptops with both slot formats (Express Card and PCMCIA) and no internal Wi-Fi cards, can use this adapter for AirMagnet Spectrum Analyzer integration with AirMagnet WiFi Analyzer PRO and AirMagnet Survey PRO.
