Electronics assembly

A frame for an electronics assembly which comprises a location in which a motherboard can be received and a plurality of daughterboard guides to enable a plurality of daughterboards to be located in the frame in engagement with the motherboard when the motherboard is received in the location, the frame further comprising:

• an opening to allow insertion of each daughterboard of the plurality of daughterboards into the frame or removal of each daughterboard of the plurality of daughterboards from the frame;
• a flange that extends along or next to a periphery of the opening and along which an injector/ejector mechanism for each daughterboard of the plurality of daughterboards is coupled or can engage at different locations along a length thereof, wherein the flange is divided into separate sections that correspond to the different locations to allow the flange to flex at the different locations along the flange during insertion of each daughterboard of the plurality of daughterboards;
• and
• a strengthening member coupled to the frame, wherein the injector/ejector mechanism bears on the flange when an injector/ejector's respective daughterboard is in the frame and bears on the strengthening member as the injector/ejector's respective daughterboard is removed from the frame.

• a flange that extends along or next to a periphery of the opening and along which an injector/ejector mechanism for each daughterboard of the plurality of daughterboards is coupled or can engage at different locations along a length thereof, wherein the flange is divided into separate sections, by slots, that correspond to the different locations to allow the flange to flex at the different locations along the flange during insertion of each daughterboard of the plurality of daughterboards;
• and
• an outer wall coupled to the flange, wherein a slot, on the flange, that is nearest to the outer wall, is longer than at least one other slot dividing the flange into separate sections.
