 = GW1614x Mini-PCIe to M.2 Adapter
 
-These adapters convert a Mini-PCIe slot on the Gateworks SBC to a M.2 B-Key slot for a M.2 Cellular Modem with Dual SIM slots.
+These adapters convert a Mini-PCIe slot on the Gateworks SBC to a M.2 B-Key slot for a M.2 Cellular Modem with Dual SIM slots. The adapter also provides SIM support for slots without a SIM. 
 
 There are 2 derivations of the GW1614x:
- * GW16140 - USB 2.0 B-Key
- * GW16141 - USB 3.0 B-Key (USB 3.0 only supported in certain slots on Newport SBCs. USB 3.0 not supported on Ventana)
+ * GW16140 - USB 2.0 B-Key - Use for USB 2.0 slots.
+   * All Ventana family
+   * USB 2.0 slots on Newport SBCs 
+    * GW6200 - J8
+    * GW6300 - J9 & J10
+    * GW6400 - J9 & J10 & J11
 
-It is important to compare the M.2 Pinout of the modem to the M.2 pinout of the GW1614x.
+ * GW16141 - USB 3.0 B-Key - USB 3.0 is only supported by certain slots on Newport SBCs, USB 3.0 is not supported on Ventana. For Ventana boards always use GW16140. 
+   * Do not use on Ventana family
+   * USB 3.0 slots on Newport SBCs - Note the USB 3.0 signals overlap with the PCIe signals so some boards have a mux to allow the slot to be configured for either PCIe signaling or USB 3.0 signaling. See link here for controlling the mux using [http://trac.gateworks.com/wiki/newport/bootloader#hwconfig HWCONFIG]. 
+    * GW6100 - J6 (PCIe/USB 3.0 mux)
+    * GW6200 - J6 (PCIe/USB 3.0 mux)
+    * GW6300 - J11 (PCIe/USB 3.0 mux)
+    * GW6400 - J12 (no mux - only supports USB 3.0)
+
+It is important to compare the M.2 Pinout of the modem to the M.2 pinout of the GW1614x. to verify no pin conflicts.
