I pulled this card out of a Chromebook and would like to use it in my desktop PC and I just need to get an adapter. What kind of connector is this?

Looks like some PCI thing.

 

probably not worth it to use in your PC though

looks like mini pcie, but it might actually be m.2...although I haven't seen an m.2 wireless card, but you'll also need antennas for it. It's probably easier/cheaper to just get a normal desktop wireless card.

If you're planning to use that in your PC, you also need to get antennas on that thing (see two nodes on the upper left corner?)

 

Also that looks like mini PCI-E with a cutout.  don't listen to me

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

I'm pretty sure that mini PCI-E is not directly compatible with PCI-E (and apparently that's not even mini PCI-E at all, see @Glenwing 's post)

Yes, I know it's a wireless card guys, that's why I posted it in the networking section. I just need to find an adapter like this for it.

Wireless card isn't the form of connector....that's just functionality that the the card happens to handle.

The centered screw indicates an M.2 slot, looks like with E- and A- keys.

Can you help me find an adapter so I can use it in my desktop PC? It's a really nice combo AC and Bluetooth intel wifi adapter

Based on the product descriptions, this product appears to do what the OP is looking for. Nice find!

Looking to buy GTX690, other multi-GPU cards, or single-slot graphics cards:
