Hello MattLeung,
The NV here stands for "No vPro", meaning those adapters do not support the

If you're looking to upgrade or replace your wireless adapter, our recommendation is to work together with your computer manufacturer to identify which adapters are supported and pre-approved for your system. Whenever possible, you should purchase the approved adapters from your computer manufacturer directly to further avoid incompatibilities due to sub-model differences.
