Wifi Card Connector Type?

i have a vostro 1700, with a bcm4311 pcie wireless card. I'm trying to found out what type of connector does it use for the antenna. Can't seem to figure this one out and chat live support was pointless and a waste of time. Thank you in advance.

    broadcom nor dell were any help at all, broadcom kept referring me to their website, and nobody on the dell support staff i talked to had any idea. The happiest moment i had with dell was when someone finally admitted they didn't know instead of giving me the third degree about why i wanted to know.

    Of couorse you could just open the MinPCI Express card door on the bottom of the computer and look.  See if the following helps:
