Genuine Dell OEM IO Board
This is a genuine Dell OEM IO circuit board for Inspiron 3481 and Vostro 3481 laptops. It integrates one USB port, a CMOS battery connector and an SD card reader slot. The part replaces the factory daughterboard and restores those connections. It is supplied new and matches the component shown in the product images.
Build and daily connectivity
The board mounts inside the laptop chassis and provides the external USB and SD interfaces used for peripherals and memory cards. Its connectors align with the original cut-outs, so the ports sit flush once the board is seated and secured. Because it carries the CMOS battery header, the system clock and BIOS settings are maintained when the main battery is removed.
Compatibility checklist
Confirm your laptop model is either Inspiron 3481 or Vostro 3481 before ordering. Verify the existing board carries the same DPN 39M5P or one of the alternate part numbers listed. Ensure you are comfortable disassembling the laptop to reach the IO board and reconnecting the flexible flat cable. Buyers needing a different port layout or additional interfaces should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
Does the USB port on the 39M5P board use the standard USB 2.0 interface?
The board provides one USB port that follows the USB 2.0 specification used in the Inspiron 3481 and Vostro 3481 chassis.
What physical space does the 39M5P IO board occupy inside the laptop?
It fits the dedicated daughterboard cavity on the right-hand side of the Inspiron 3481 and Vostro 3481, secured by two screw posts and a single FFC connector.
Which connector must be seated first when installing the 39M5P board to avoid a no-boot condition?
Insert the flat-flex cable into the motherboard header before lowering the board onto its screw posts; reversing the order bends the cable and breaks the SD reader circuit.
