Overview
Advantech Co., Ltd. introduces the pioneer of the IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac WIFI with Bluetooth
4.0 and BT3.0+HS class I combo half mini card module --- EWM-W157H01E.
The
EWM-W157H01E IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac PCIE WIFI with Bluetooth 4.0 + BT3.0 HS class I combo
module is a highly integrated wireless local area network (WLAN) solution to let users enjoy the
digital content through the latest wireless technology without using the extra cables and cords. It
combines with Bluetooth 4.0 and 3.0 + HS class I and provides a complete 2.4GHz Bluetooth
system which is fully compliant to Bluetooth 4.0 and 3.0 + HS and v2.1 that supports EDR of 2Mbps
and 3Mbps for data and audio communications. It enables a high performance, cost effective, low
power, compact solution that easily fits onto the PCI Express and USB Combo half mini Card.
Compliant with the IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac standard, EWM-W157H01E uses Direct Sequence
Spread Spectrum (DSSS), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), BPSK, QPSK,
CCK and QAM baseband modulation technologies.
Compare to 802.11n technology, 802.11ac standard makes big improvement on speed and
range. EWM-W157H01E module adopts REALTEK solution. The module design is based on the
RTL8821AE single solution.

This pin can externally shut down the RTL8821AE BT
function when BT_DIS# is pulled Low. When this pin
is pulled low, USB interface will be also disabled. This
pin can be also defined as the BT Radio-off function
with host interface remaining connected.
