Slink connector SQ5 replacement

I’m referring to the Slink connector that comes standard on SQ5, not the additional Slink card. Can just the Slink connector be replaced by itself or is it permanently attached to a larger (presumably expense) board?

The “locking” mechanism on my Slink connector has broken: it works fine if I use a standard Ethernet cable, but no longer accepts a “locking” cable.

The SLink connector, along with the other two connectors and the I/O port, is located on a separate circuit board (approximately 19 x 13 cm) with only a few components, which therefore shouldn’t be very expensive.
You can get a glimpse of the circuit board by removing the I/O port cover.

Thank you. Exactly what I needed to know.
