Have not seen this mentioned anywhere else so I'll add: this is a "board edge connector". A whole PCB will plug into this socket, rather than a plastic connector on the end of some wires.
Picture plugging a graphics card into a socket on a motherboard. It's that type of connector. The PCB it will plug into will have exposed metal pads on a bit that juts out.
You are correct! I did get a reply from sonnet and there is a set of 2 fans I didn’t see in the case when I posted. This board plugs into their controller board when the inner case is slid into the outer case
