What kind of connector does the Wi-Fi antenna use?

I picked up a used Mac that seems to be in good condition. It boots and connects to Wi-Fi.

But the external Wi-Fi antenna is missing. (It has the Bluetooth antenna.)

Apple part number A1066 (or 603-3420)

I’ve found them used for $30 to over $100, but I’m hoping it’s a standard connector share by other Wi-Fi antennas.

Does anyone know what that connector is called?

The Apple part looks like this:

@yourmacexpert The G5 Extreme airport card is using a standard MCX connector. Any antenna with that connector should fit your computer.
