Embodiment Construction

[0012] figure 1 is a front perspective view of an electrical connector assembly 100 formed in accordance with an exemplary embodiment. figure 2 is a rear perspective view of the electrical connector assembly 100 . The electrical connector assembly 100 includes a cage member 102 and a communication connector 104 received in the cage member 102 (in figure 1 with figure 2 Shown in dotted lines in the image 3 with Figure 5 shown in ). The pluggable module 106 is configured to be loaded into the cage member 102 to mate with the communication connector 104 . The cage member 102 and communication connector 104 are intended to be disposed on and electrically connected to a circuit board 107 , such as a motherboard. The communication connector 104 is disposed within the cage member 102 for mating engagement with the pluggable module 106 .

[0013] The cage member 102 is a shielded, stamped and formed cage member including a plurality of shield walls 108 defining a plurality ...

Abstract

An electrical connector assembly includes a cage member (102) having a plurality of walls (108) defining a port (110) configured to receive a pluggable module (106) therein through a front end (124) of the cage member. The pluggable module is configured to be electrically connected to a communication connector (104) housed within the cage member at a rear end (126) of the cage member. The walls are manufactured from a metal material. The walls include side walls (120, 122) and a top wall (114) between the side walls. The top wall is non-planar and includes an upper step (140) and a lower step (142). The lower step is aligned above the communication connector at or near the rear end and the upper step is aligned above the pluggable module at or near the front end.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to electrical connector assemblies for high speed optical and electrical communication systems. Background technique [0002] It is known to provide a metal cage with a plurality of ports whereby the transceiver modules are pluggable therein. Several pluggable module designs and standards have been introduced, where the pluggable modules plug into sockets that are electrically connected to the host circuit board. For example, a well-known type of transceiver developed by an industry consortium is known as a gigabit interface converter (GBIC) or a serial optical converter (SOC) and provides connectivity for computer and data communication networks such as Ethernet or fiber optic network). These standards provide a generally robust design that has been well received in the industry. [0003] Expect to increase the operating frequency of network connections. Electrical connector systems used at increased operating speeds present...
