The system needs a WWAN card in order to make a cellular connection.  Before you buy one, verify that the antenna leads for the WWAN card are present in the system -- in most cases they won't be, meaning you'll need a new back cover or complete display assembly with the antennas.

The other option is a USB WWAN adapter.

That option will be there whether or not there is a WWAN card.  Go into the device manager and see if there is (I don't think you'll find one based on the screen capture you posted).
