Abstract: An opto-electronic module is housed in a hermetically sealed housing which is fabricated on a base member of solderable material to which a side wall structure is soldered. A cover is similarly provided that either is soldered to the top open end of the housing at the edge of the housing wall structure or is a cup-shaped member that slides over the wall structure and is soldered at the juxtaposed faces of the walls of the cover and the wall structure. Overlapping slots co-align to form a passage through which optical fibers may pass through the walls. The hermetic seal of the housing prevents the internal contamination of the module by water vapor, particulate matter or other contaminants.

Abstract: An electrical component is provided that has a plurality of electrical leads. Further, an electromagnetic interference shield and ground cage is provided which has a plurality of conductive walls connected together to form an enclosure having an open bottom. One of the walls has a plurality of openings formed therein to allow the plurality of leads to be passed into the enclosure. The electromagnetic interference shield and ground cage further has at least two ground connection pins attached to a lower edge of the walls. One of the leads is a ground lead that is electrically coupled to the electromagnetic interference shield and ground cage at one of the openings, thus reducing the length, inductance and impedance of the ground lead.

Abstract: An electrical connector system has two connectors, one of which is included in a module mateable with the other connector in a pluggable manner. The other connector includes an elongated guide rail and a connector block in which are retained two or more electrical contacts. Signal connections can be made in a predetermined sequence when the module is plugged into the other connector because the contact pads of the module are of different lengths. For example, sequencing the connection of power and ground signals with respect to data signals provides hot-pluggability. Also, a grounding contact on the module is engaged by a spring clip on the other connector to provide an additional or alternative grounding path.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a delatching mechanism for an electronic module, such as an opto-electronic transceiver or a copper transceiver, for locking the electronic module in a host cage. The delatching mechanism enables a conventional small form factor (SFP) sized module to be unlatched while a cable remains engaged therein. A manually engageable lever, such as a bail handle, is rotatably connected on one end of a pivoting latch, and includes a projection for abutting against the module housing for distributing the force applied to the bail to one end of the pivoting latch, whereby the other end of the pivoting latch rotates away from engagement with the host cage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a latching system for an optical transceiver module that eliminates the use of compound latching mechanisms by providing a single latching lever for unplugging the module from its mounting cage. The latching lever includes a pair of arms with a bail handle on one end to facilitate actuation of the latching lever and manipulation of the module. The other end of the latching lever applies a force to the cage to separate first and second mating latching members on the module and the cage, respectively. The fulcrum of the lever is provided by a bend in each arm, which acts like a journal, mounted in a bearing depression formed in the module housing.

Abstract: An electromagnetic radiation shield useful to attenuate or prevent the escape of electromagnetic radiation from the front of transceiver opto-electronic subassemblies resident in an opening or port in the housing of an electronic system is formed with both an aperture for each barrel of the opto-electronic subassemblies and a plurality of extensions projecting outwardly from the shield. The distal ends of the extensions are bent or shaped to form smoothly curved contact surfaces that project outside the transceiver module to make contact with a grounded member of the housing or other electrically grounded portion of the electronic system of which the transceiver module is a part. The electromagnetic radiation shield is assembled with the transceiver subassemblies and disposed within a transceiver module to be inserted into a communications port of a computer or server. The transceiver module contains elements that may generate and radiate electromagnetic energy. The electromagnetic energy must be prevented from escaping or attenuated to prevent electromagnetic interference in the other nearby electronic components or systems susceptible to electromagnetic interference.

Abstract: A push-to-release latching mechanism for retaining a transceiver module in a communication port of a computer or server is provided with a beam spring structure for positional restoration of the latch member, and the latch is supported and moveable relative to the host transceiver module. The latch member may be formed to include camming surfaces that facilitate the insertion of the transceiver module into a communication port and mate with a guide rail and connector resident in a communication port. The latch member may be adapted to latch with a rigid latch bar or a cantilevered spring. Additionally, the latch may be formed with a camming surface which insures that the latch is displaced to a latching position whenever network cables are connected to the transceiver module by camming the latch into the secure, latched position and subsequently preventing the latch from moving to an insecure or unlatched position. The latch member is pivotally supported on the transceiver module in a shaft/journal arrangement and thus is removed from the communication port whenever the transceiver module is removed, thereby preventing the latch from projecting from the communication port and being subject to damage. The latch member may be formed with a living hinge to provide a pivot axis and one end of the living hinge may be attached to a electronic module chassis or to a support structure which may be mated with a electronic module chassis for easy replaceability.

Abstract: An electrical connector in a computer system includes a body and two or more electrical contacts. The body has a guide member elongated between a first end and a second end along a first axis and has a connector block at the first end. The connector has a very low profile (preferably, less than about 10 mm), and the bottom of the body is surface-mountable on a circuit board. The connector block retains the contacts, which are spaced from one another in the direction of the first axis. The upper portions of contacts nearer the first end of the body extend higher above the circuit board on which the connector is mounted than contacts nearer the second end. In other words, the upper portions of the contacts together present a surface that is generally inclined or angled with respect to the bottom surface of the connector and the surface of the circuit board on which it is mountable. When a mating connector having complementary contacts that together present a surface inclined at a complementary angle is, guided by the guide member, moved in the direction of the first axis toward the connector block, the contacts of the electrical connector and mating connector make electrical contact with minimal wiping. The connector block may be wedge-shaped, with its upper surface defining the inclined surface in which the upper portions of the contacts are retained. The vertex of the inclination angle defines a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. The electrical contacts may be arrayed in two or more rows, each parallel to the second axis and having two or more contacts.
