Abstract: A device for holding a plurality of ferrules securely against a respective plurality of receptacles, which may include: a frame including: a transverse portion arranged in a transverse direction, a first longitudinal portion projecting from a first edge of the transverse portion and a second longitudinal portion projecting from a second edge of the transverse portion opposite to the first edge of the transverse portion, wherein the first and the second longitudinal portions project from the respective edges of the transverse portion in a longitudinal direction that is substantially perpendicular to the transverse direction; and a holder coupled between the first and second longitudinal portions of the frame, the holder being configured to hold, with respect to the frame, a plurality of ferrules arranged longitudinally parallel to each other and being distanced from each other in the transverse direction.

Abstract: A transceiver includes, (a) a communication circuit, which is configured to exchange signals between a cable and a communication unit when the transceiver is connected to the communication unit, and (b) a housing, including: (i) a first shell including a substrate having the communication circuit disposed thereon, (ii) a second shell, which is configured to connect with the first shell for encapsulating the communication circuit, the second shell has an opening facing the communication circuit, and (iii) a base plate, which is fitted in the opening and including a first surface having one or more cooling fins formed thereon, and a second surface, opposite the first surface that is facing the communication circuit, the base plate is configured to transfer heat between the communication circuit and the cooling fins.

Abstract: A device may include a frame, a first leg extending from the frame, and a second leg extending from the frame, wherein each of the first leg and the second leg is curved in a respective direction, the respective directions being different.

Abstract: Apparatuses and associated methods of manufacturing are described that provide a cage receptacle assembly configured to receive a cable connector. The cage receptacle assembly includes a cage body defining a first end and a second end. The cage body includes a top cage member attached to a bottom cage member via two side portions of the top cage member, and the bottom cage member defines an opening. The cage receptacle assembly defines a heat dissipation unit disposed within the opening of the bottom cage member, and the heat dissipation unit includes one or more heat dissipation elements allowing heat to be transferred from the cable connector to an external environment of the cage receptacle assembly.
