Pro Max Tower T2 FCT2250, Front Bay SD card reader?

I am looking for the DPN for the Front Bay SD card reader for the FCT 2250 Dell ProMax T2 Tower. Mine came without the SD card reader, so I am trying to install one. Found one with a cable, but don't think the size is correct since I tried it and it gets blocked by the "junction box" which has the cables inside it and snaps shut. Any input appreciated (also regarding the actual physical installation - it's tight in there).

    Spec mentions

    OPTICAL DRIVE  8x DVD-ROM 9.5mm optical drive
    8x DVD+/-RW 9.5mm optical drive
    Integrated Smart Card Reader with Contact and Contactless Support (CAC/PIV)

    PIV (Personal Identity Verification) and CAC (Common Access Card) are secure smart card credentials used to access systems. They require a physical smart card reader.  This seems different from traditional media SD card reader.

    @DELL-ChrisM2​ Thank you so much! You got me the right answer and the right direction as well. I called sales, and they had it in stock, and I ordered it, and it'll be coming later this week! So glad you are still here on this forum.
