Hi:

 

Notebooks with the RTL8821CE wifi card only have one antenna wire, and all Wifi 6 AX cards would require two.

 

HP only has the service manual for the older models in the series on the support page, so there is no info on what other wifi cards would be supported.

In any event, it would be more trouble that it is worth to purchase the dual antenna kit, and completely disassemble the notebook including the display panel area to properly run a second antenna wire/tranceiver, and have no guarantee the AX210 card would work.
