Genuine Dell OEM IO board connector

This genuine Dell OEM board-to-board connector links the IO daughter boards to the motherboard in Alienware m15 R2 and m17 R2 laptops. It serves both the left and right side IO boards and is secured with two wafer screws. Each IO daughter board requires one connector, and this listing supplies a single unit.

Reliable signal path under continuous use

The connector maintains a stable electrical path between the IO daughter boards and the mainboard during extended sessions. It handles sustained data and power transfer without the signal degradation that can arise from worn or loose connections. Consistent contact pressure supports dependable operation over the laptop's service life.

Precision fit for straightforward replacement

The OEM design matches the original mounting points and wafer-screw holes, allowing direct installation without modification. Build quality aligns with factory specifications, so the connector seats firmly and resists vibration in daily transport. Buyers needing to repair both left and right IO boards should note that two separate units are required.
