1394 front panel jack cable/jack

[heytud]

A while back, I bought a kit to bring my USB ports to the front, in a
floppy bay. The one I bought (Koutech KW-F7771) also came with a 1394
jack, which I didn't connect.

I recently added a 1394 PCI adapder, which has one internal jack: a
standard 6-pin female, just like the external ones on the back. I
would like to connect it to the front panel jack, but the cable
supplied with the kit is designed to work only with 1394 ports on a
motherboard-- which have jumper/ribbon-style conenctors.

Any ideas where to get a connector that will plug into the internal
jack and allow me to connect that front panel port?

Not quite what I meant... I want to keep the front panel jack I have.

Thanks for the link to frontx.com, though. They have exactly what I
need:

I my have to juggle the pinout on the header connector, but that won't
be too hard.
