  • Patent number: 10375859
    Abstract: A ganged shielding cage assembly include a plurality of passageways that allows modules to be inserted into the assembly. Walls between the passageways have a heat transfer passages that extends between the front and back ends and allows for coolant to flow through the assembly. Because of the dimensions, heat can be transferred from an inserted module to the walls and then to the coolant flowing through the heat transfer passages.

  • Publication number: 20160105991
    Abstract: A thermal interposer for use in providing a mating interface between a heat sink and an electronic module includes an elongated body portion having two opposing surfaces. On one surface, a plurality of press-fit pegs are defined that extend upwardly and outwardly away from the interposer body portion. On the other, opposing surface, a plurality of contact arms are defined that extend, in cantilevered fashion, downwardly and away from the interposer body portion. The press-fit pins are configured to enter grooves formed in a heat sink in a manner to form intimate, metal to metal, contact while the contact arms are configured to contact the top surface of an electronic module with reliable normal force.

  • Publication number: 20160106001
    Abstract: A ganged shielding cage with improved heat transfer capabilities is disclosed. The cage has a plurality of module-receiving openings, or bays arranged in serial, widthwise order. Each such opening is separated from an adjacent opening by an intervening wall that defines, at least partially, a continuous passage, extending lengthwise and communicating with the front and rear portions of the cage. This passage permits air flow to occur between adjacent openings of the cages and between adjacent modules held thereby.

  • Patent number: 9257794
    Abstract: A cable bypass assembly is disclosed for use in providing a high speed transmission line for connecting a chip, processor or circuitry mounted on a circuit board to other similar components. The bypass cable assembly has a structure that maintains the geometry of the cable in place from the chip to the connector and then through the connector. The connector includes a plurality of conductive terminals and shield members arranged within an insulative support frame in a manner that approximates the structure of the cable so that the impedance and other electrical characteristics of the cable may be maintained as best is possible through the cable termination and the connector.
