Hi

The connector is a very normal 2 x 15 position 0.156” spaced edge connector. 
You can buy them on Amazon:

( ummm …. errr …. no, not that last one, it’s 18 pin … I only counted the pins

or from a variety of other sources. 

If you dig a bit there is even a guy selling the full adapter for the 10811, 
(for a crazy price) but not identifying it
as working with the 10811
