WiFi connector type?

Forgive me if this has been posted before but I has a search and couldn't find anything. 

 

I have the TUF X570 WiFi motherboard and it comes with the external WiFi adapter that you attach to the IO on the board. 

 

The angle the cables come out of the board drive me mad and I want to buy 90 degree extensions to neaten it up, but I have no clue what the connector type is to search for. Anyone know what they are? Pic is for reference of the thing I'm talking about.

that's just the antennae, havent seen any 90 degree adapters though, only 90 degree antenna which directly plug into the ports.

Yeah it's still just an idea at the moment, I don't even know if it exists. I just wondered what the connector was known as on the Mobo so I can do a bit of research.

Don't take my word for it on the exact adapter but you'd probably want something like this:

I was looking at these before and thought they looked similar. Hopefully someone can confirm for sure these are right.

For anyone who is interested. I found out the connectors and ordered some. They're called RP-SMA connectors and I for two for like £3 

 

Much happier with how the cables lay! Just need to paint the outside black and it's perfect. Also ran some speed tests and no noticeable drop in performance.
