At first, the AirPort card in the MacBook Pro looks very similar to the one that we pulled out of the Mid 2012 MacBook Air.

Broadcom BCM20702 single-chip Bluetooth 4.0 HCI solution with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) support

Skyworks WiFi Block

2xSE5515 Dual-Band FrontEnds

2.4GHz SE2598L and 5GHz SE5019T transmit power amps
