The only ones I know of are Mini-PCI. Our next revision of our board has
mini-PCI slots instead of PCMCIA.
Interestingly, Intersil and Atheros have reference designs for 5Ghz PCMCIA
cards with external antenna jacks, but no one is actually manufacturing
them.
We did have support for one of the Intersil 5Ghz cards, but they pulled
production in favor of a dual band card that DOES NOT have an external
antenna jack.

So, are there no 802.11a cards with an external antenna connector?
