This is the correct way to do it (at least IMO), attaching them while the card is installed puts unnecessary stress on the slot and card that can cause damage to either.

And yes, they're mighty small.

In the pic above, adjacent to the 8-pin CPU Power, there are two small antenna connection "points' on the card itself.

These are where the two antenna cables connect to the WiFi/BT card.

Hi! 

I have a problem to connecting the antennas of the WiFi module on this motherboard. The diagram (in manual) does not correspond with the type of module on this FM2+ motherboard.

It is therefore not indicated; How to "connect" the antennas to the module.



Can you help me please ??
