3In this version, a standard half-length mPCIe card is mounted on the Asus Wi-Fi
4Go! daughter board, and the daughter board is connected to the motherboard
5through a proprietary 16-1 pin connector.

33There are two kinds of daughter boards using this connector. One among them has
34one MMCX antenna connector, the other has two antenna connectors and USB lane
35wired (this kind may be called BT Go!). I can only obtain the former, so I
36cannot confirm the exact way the USB data lane gets wired.
