Save yourself the trouble and get an extension of the cable instead of the PCI-E card! I just got this cable in and it works like a charm.

Reports are that the cable that connects between the antenna and the wireless PCIE add in card is near max attenuation as is.

That cable in it's 2 meter length is supposed to be the max extension that will work. There is a 6 meter version, that I'm sure some would love to know if it works were you willing to experiment.

You have a few options:

Place the PC closer/in the workout room and lengthen the cables to the desk for the screen.

Active 35' USB and HDMI cables between the breakout-box and the PC worked for me before I bought the wireless adapter.

If you want wireless:

PCI-E over USB if you plan to purchase the wireless adapter. Personally I can't go back to wired.

For a 2m longer antenna, the Trendnet TEW-L102 worked for me: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B071Y7FXWW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_GRtdCb88BX6F0

Just ran across a post from a couple of years ago with some interesting info on extending the wireless cable and also for mounting the wigig pci-e card outside of your pc that might be of some use.

Have a look through these and see if any help

The coax for the antenna is SMA, I believe. Another thread on here recommends this cable from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071Y7FXWW

There's already plenty of people saying that works for them on this sub but this actually inspired me to order one and try it. Amazon says they can get it to me tomorrow so I'll report back once I try it!
