HP ProDesk 400 G4 DM
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I recently bought this computer, I unpacked it and I realized that I misunderstood the description, it has an expansion slot for WLAN and Bluetooth.

I don't care about Wireless connectivity but I do need to connect a Bluetooth speaker.

Where do I find and order this kind of device, one that is officially supported.

I would prefer one that has not external giants antenna to be installed.

Many thanks in advance,

Hi:

 

What you want to do is too complicated.

 

You would need to purchase a M.2 Wifi/Bluetooth card, and the internal antenna system that is specific for that model.

 

I have no idea what the part numbers are for those items.

 

Just buy an external USB Bluetooth adapter and you will be all set.

 

I use this one.  It is so small, it hardly sticks out of the USB port at all.

 

I think it has about a 30 foot (10 meter) range.
