Replace laptop Wi-Fi adapter

[Zezze]

Hi!

I got a Fujitsu Amilo La 1703 with a SIS163U Wi-Fi adapter but it's not supporting 802.11n networks. I got a HP Compaq 550 to with what I think is a Broadcom BCM94312MCG Wi-Fi adapter which is supporting 802.11n.

When i opened these computers up I found out that these Wi-Fi adapters are pretty similar to each other but now to the big question, is it possible to just replace the Fujitsu's Wi-Fi adapter with the one from the HP and why is the Wi-Fi adapter in the Fujitsu only plugged in with one cable while the Wi-Fi adapter in the HP is plugged in with two cables?

I don't see the Wires on the Fujitsu, So those are Different and Probably won't work..

The Fujitsu got one cable in the upper right corner of the Wi-Fi adapter.

I tried it out but I can't find the Wi-Fi adapter anywhere in Windows, It's not showing up in device manager even after installing the right drivers for the adapter. It doesn't pop up in CMD with IPCONFIG /All either.
