Looking for an optical SPDIF backplate

[DigitaLx2001]

I have a DFI Lanparty UT nf3 250gb motherboard . In addition to coaxial in/out built in, it also has a connector for an optional optical SPDIF output (much like a lot of boards have connectors for irda, spidf, usb, etc). I need this connection for my receiver because I have no open coaxial SPDIF ports.

Anyway, I cant seem to find this sort of plate anywhere. Generally, sounds cards come with a second backplate if they have several connections, or at least have the option to buy them, but from what I've seen motherboards often do not. I cant even find it when googling for all sorts of combination of the words spdif, optical, back plate. I did find that some DFI boards came with this sort of plate, but not this one. I dont think is is an expensive part, its just a plate and a wire basically, it doesnt have to process anything. DFI also mentions nothing on their site, so I emailed them and am still waiting for a response.

The closest thing I found was this (second item), but it says its an Asus part and I don't know if it would work, unless this sort of pin connection is universal: http://shop.mediacomputers.co.uk/acatalog/Motherboard_Accessories.html


Can anyone help me here?? This seems like a simple item which should be readily available... but apparently I was wrong, unless I'm a complete idiot.


Thanks,

EK

I do know that there are many front 5 1/2" card readers/temp monitors that have them on there. go look at fan controllers and card readers on newegg.com, and I guaruntee you'll find one.
