Abstract: A cage includes a cage housing forming an inner area with internal walls that define an upper port and a lower port. Each of the ports include a cap that forms a keyway. The cap in an upper bay can extend from the upper bay in a direction that is opposite a direction the cap in the lower port extends. The cage may include a plurality of spring fingers therein which engage with a conductive bezel. The cage provides EMI shielding for the plug connector.

Abstract: An assembly including a plug connector (22) and a conductive cage (20). The plug connector includes a housing (44), a projection (66) extending therefrom, and a paddle card (60) mounted therein. The cage (20) includes a cage housing (26) forming an inner area and at least one cap (64) forming a keyway (68). The housing (44) of the plug connector (22) is received in the inner area (36) of the cage (20) and the projection (66) of the plug connector (22) is received in the keyway (68) of the cage (20). The cage (20) may include a plurality of spring fingers therein which engage with a conductive bezel (122). The cage (20) provides EMI shielding for the plug connector (22).
