Every HP Folio 9470m notebook has a SIM card slot.

 

What 90% of them don't have is the required WWAN adapter which was an expensive option.

 

That is the wireless device that is needed to connect to a cellular network.

 

All the SIM card does is authorize you to use your cellular provider's network.

 

In order for the SIM card to work, your notebook must have one of the WWAN adapters listed in chapter 3 of the service manual present and working in the device manager under the network adapters category:

WWAN module:
HP lt2523 LTE/HSPA+ Mobile Broadband Module   
HP lt2522 LTE/EV-DO Mobile Broadband Module
HP un2430 EV-DO/HSPA Mobile Broadband Module 
HP hs2350 HSPA+ Mobile Broadband Module 
HP un2430 EV-DO/HSPA Mini Card 
HP hs2350 hspa+ Mobile Broadband Module 

 

Without one of those adapters, the SIM card is useless.
