Having seen both boards recently, I will confirm that all of mine are
built as Sellam describes. There's a ribbon cable soldered direclty to
the PCB, looped through a couple of slots as a strain relief, then a
crimp-pin DB25 on the other end.

The card I have has a 12 or so pin ribbon cable
actually fixed to
the board by a header, and it dangles thru the apple2 slot and is
clamped in place there by a metal bracket that pinches the cable
and the case to make a firm installation.
That's the Serial Interace. But what do you mean by a "header"? The
cards I have and the photo in the manual show the cable soldered directly
to the board and looped through two adjacent slots cut into the PCB. The
Communications Interface has only a 6-line ribbon cable.
