Abstract: A conductive cage (100) for receiving a SFP transceiver includes a cage body (10) having a number of pins (122) extending downwardly and a unitary, rectangular-shaped collar (20) mounted onto the cage body. The unitary, rectangular-shaped collar has a top plate (21), a pair of opposite side plates (23) and a bottom plate (22). The bottom plate has a first bottom plate half (221) including a first engaging portion (24) and a second bottom plate half (222) having a corresponding second engaging portion (25) coupling with the first engaging portion for connecting the first bottom plate half to the second bottom plate half.

Abstract: A right-angled backplane connector (100) includes an insulative housing (20), a number of contacts (40) received in the housing (20), and a spacer (60) assembled to the housing. The housing (20) forms a front mating portion (22) adapted to mating with a mating connector and a rear mounting portion (24) integrally connected to the mating portion (22). The mounting portion (24) defines a bottom wall (244) adapted to be mounted on a printed circuit board. A number of mounting posts (248) protrudes from the bottom wall (244) to engage in a corresponding number of mounting holes defined in the printed circuit board. The mounting portion (24) further defines inserting slots (240) for a part of a fixture to be inserted therein to support the contacts when the contacts (40) are inserted into the housing (20) by the fixture.

Abstract: An electrical connector (100) includes a housing (10) for receiving a number of connector modules (11), and a latching member (6) rotatably mounting on the housing (10). The latching member (6) includes an intermediate portion (61) defining a pivotable portion therewith and an engagement portion (62) extends from the intermediate portion (61) for engaging to a complementary connector. The latching member (6) also includes an arc-shaped actuating portion (63) extending from the intermediate portion (61) opposite to the engagement portion (62) and provides biasing force by itself inflection.
