My keyboard's USB wire was frayed due to overuse, so I took it apart in order to see if I could just replace the wire [rather than the entire keyboard]. It turns out that I can, but I can't for the life of me seem to be able to find the name of this connector on the internet.


Here is a picture of both ends:

Does anyone recognize the connector on the bottom, and could you please point me in the right direction on where to buy a replacement?


EDIT: By the way, the keyboard is a Logitech G510 in case you're wondering

You best bet would be to contact the keyboard manufacture to see about a replacement or look on ebay. But if the fray is close to the USB end, I would just cut the cord close to the fray and wire on a new cord with a new USB end. There are only 4 wires in a USB cord and it is just a matter of matching up the colors.
