Help identifying correct part numbers for OptiPlex 3090 SFF original internal WiFi antenna
This is my first Community post ever, so please forgive me if I get anything wrong.
I would like to purchase the Dell original antenna kit for my Optiplex 3090 SFF, however, there are many part numbers out there and they all state they are incompatible with the SFF version. I have looked through the guide here, but it is too generic to be helpful with the 3090 SFF and does not have a compatibility chart, so this was inevitably help: https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/optiplex-3000-desktop/opti_antenna-ig/before-you-begin?guid=guid-1420810d-be4c-4f42-b363-aa23eb353c88&lang=en-us
I have looked through the service manual for my specific model and it only has instruction on removing and reinstalling the M.2 WiFi card, so still of no use: https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/optiplex-3090-sff/optiplex3090_sff_ss/wireless-module?guid=guid-7dd4e94b-d18f-47a5-8d48-ab691dde331e&lang=en-us
I found this excellent resource in another Community Discussion here that helped point me to the DP/N of the specific M.2 card to purchase which was very helpful, but still did not help me in determining the correct antenna kit for my specific device: https://www.dell.com/community/en/conversations/optiplex-desktops/optiplex-wireless-lan-card-dpn/647fa38df4ccf8a8de9729a2
My device has the dual knock-out round ports in the back and 2 separated additional slots under the front bezel that are labeled for Wireless antenna and ANT wire routing. I would rather keep everything internal (under the front bezel) and avoid using any external antennas through the back ports if possible for my system, but either would work. This is the EXTERNAL antenna I have found that should be compatible if using the back knock-out ports DP/N: 02KHRD, but please remember I am looking for the internal part number(s) for the appropriate antenna harness. Like I said, I prefer the completely internal antenna option if it exists, but will be happy with the external if that is all that is available for my workstation.
Any assistance or direction would be greatly appreciated!

@redxps630 you are a legend! I am so grateful for you prompt and helpful response! This is exactly what I needed! As you can see, if you google "6PP9J" and look at all the results, you can easily see why I was so desperately confused, the 3090 SFF is not ever listed as a match on any results (at least that I looked at), so without your expertise, I would have never had the confirmation. The good news is that I had already looked at this part previously and it seemed like the perfect match for what I could see under the front belez and this just confirmed it, so I will definitely be ordering a couple of these!
Thank you again!
