Abstract: A data entry terminal has a base unit and keyboard unit which can be assembled to provide an integrated configuration or separated to provide a distributed configuration. No tools are required. The base unit has a recess with vertical guides and a protruding electrical connector providing an input path to the device electronics. The keyboard unit has complementary guides and a connector which mates with the base unit connector when the keyboard unit is slipped into place along the guides. The terminal is readily converted from an integrated configuration to a distributed configuration by removing the keyboard unit from the base unit, adding an auxiliary cable to carry signals between the keyboard unit connector and the base unit connector and concealing the base unit recess with a filler panel having the same guide structure as the keyboard unit.

Abstract: An electronic equipment drawer is aligned with an electrical connector in a tunnel in the horizontal and vertical directions with alignment pins and holes. A screw drive and cam mounted on the drawer engages a tunnel wall and controls insertion into the tunnel to provide proper electrical contact and lock the drawer in place in the tunnel. A bus extender card inserted in a connector centrally located on a mother board is supported by surfaces on a bar extending between end walls of the drawer. The end walls include pairs of channels on opposed walls which support feature cards inserted into connectors mounted on the bus extender card.
