Abstract
A shielding cage assembly (10) for shielding a plurality of transceiver modules therein includes a conductive body cage (1), a conductive cover cage (2) and a plurality of dividing walls (3), which cooperatively define a plurality of hollowed spaces for receiving the transceiver modules therein. Retaining tabs (121), (311) are respectively formed on the body cage and the dividing walls, and engage in a corresponding plurality of slots (24a, 24) defined in the cover cage to hold with the cover cage to the body cage and to fix the dividing walls between the cover cage and body cage.
Claims15
A shielding cage assembly for accommodating a plurality of transceiver modules, comprising:
- a body cage including an electrically conductive bottom wall and two electrically conductive side walls;
- a plurality of electrically conductive dividing walls arranged in said body cage, cooperating with said body cage side walls to form a plurality of channels therein;
- and
- an electrically conductive cover cage engaging with said body cage to form a plurality of hollow spaces between the bottom wall, side walls, dividing walls and cover cage for receiving transceiver modules therein wherein a plurality of retaining members extend from upper edges of said body cage side walls and said dividing walls, respectively and wherein a plurality of slots is defined through said cover case to accept the retaining members of the body case side walls and dividing walls wherein each slot has a seam portion and an enlarged opening in communication with the seam portion.
A shielding cage assembly for accommodating a plurality of electronic or optoelectronic components therein, comprising:
- a conductive cage;
- and
- a plurality of vertical inner partitions arranged in said conductive cage forming a plurality of hollow spaces therebetween for receiving the electronic or optoelectronic components therein wherein said conductive cage includes a cover portion and a body portion and the cover portion includes a plurality of slots in alignment with and engaging a corresponding plurality of retaining elements extending from said body portion and said vertical inner partitions where each slot has a seam portion and an enlarged opening in communication with the seam portion.
A shielding cage assembly for receiving a plurality of modules therein, comprising:
- a lower cage including a bottom wall;
- a plurality of releasing tabs formed on a front edge section of the bottom wall;
- an upper cage located above the lower cage parallel to the lower cage and cooperating with the lower cage to define a space therebetween;
- two side walls located on two sides of said lower cage and said upper cage, each of said side walls extending from one of said lower cage and said upper cage to engage the other and securing the lower cage and the upper cage together;
- a plurality of dividing walls discrete from but perpendicularly extending between said lower cage and said upper cage, each of said dividing walls defining two opposite ends respectively engaged with the lower cage and the upper cage and securing each of said dividing walls to both said lower cage and said upper cage;
- wherein
- said dividing walls separate said space into a plurality channels, and each of said channels is equipped with one of said release tabs for releasably and latchably receiving one of said modules therein wherein said upper cage includes a plurality of slots in alignment with and engaging a corresponding plurality of retaining elements extending from said two side walls and said plurality of dividing walls where each slot has a seam portion and an enlarged opening in communication with the seam portion.
