Embodiment Construction

[0015] figure 1 A transceiver assembly 100 is shown, which is adapted to transmit data signals, especially at high speeds, such as the 10 gigabits per second (Gbps) data transmission rate required by the SFP+ standard. However, it should be understood that the benefits and advantages described and / or herein of the inventive subject matter are equally applicable to other data transfer rates and different systems and standards.

[0016] Such as figure 1 As shown, assembly 100 generally includes pluggable modules 102 . It is configured for pluggable insertion into the socket assembly 104 mounted on the main printed circuit 106, which is then mounted into the main system (not shown), such as but not limited to routers, computers and / or etc. The host system typically includes a conductive chassis having a bezel 108 (bezel) including an aperture 109 therethrough and substantially aligned with each receptacle assembly 104 . The pluggable module 102 is inserted into the receptac...

Abstract

A receptacle connector is provided for mounting on a printed circuit having a contact mounting area and an incoming trace that extends into the contact mounting area. The receptacle connector includes a housing having a slot configured to receive a mating connector therein. The receptacle connector also includes an upper contact and a lower contact held by the housing. The upper and lower contacts include mating segments, mounting feet, and intermediate segments that extend between the mating segments and the mounting feet. The mounting foot of the lower contact is configured to be mounted on the incoming trace of the printed circuit such that the mounting foot creates a conductive path between the incoming trace and the intermediate segment of the lower contact. The conductive path forms part of a propagation path of electrical current through the electrical trace and the lower contact.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a socket connector for use in transceiver assemblies. Background technique [0002] Various types of fiber optic and copper wire based transceiver assemblies are known for communicating between electronic host devices and external devices. These transceiver assemblies typically include modular assemblies that can be pluggably connected to sockets in a host device to provide flexibility in system configuration. These modular assemblies are configured according to various size and compatibility standards, one of which is the Quad Small Form Factor Pluggable (QSFP) module standard. Typical QSFP modules and socket assemblies can satisfactorily transmit data signals at rates up to 10 gigabits per second (Gbps). Another pluggable module standard, the XFP standard, requires transceiver modules to also transmit data signals at speeds up to 10Gbps. [0003] A pluggable module plugs into a transceiver assembly of a printed cir...
