Abstract: The present invention provides a multi-channel transceiver module comprising a unitary housing having a first channel body and a second channel body. Each channel body includes a male plug end and a receptacle plug end. A bridge member is provided for joining the first and second bodies. The bridge members disposed at the receptacle end. A gap is provided between the plug ends of each channel body. The gap extends from each plug end to the bridge member to partially divide each channel so that each plug end is insertable within a separate receptacle cage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cage for thermal management and for housing an electronic module. The cage includes top, bottom and side walls joined to form an interior cavity. The side walls form an enclosure having a first panel. A thermally conductive pathway is disposed on the first panel. The enclosure receives an electronic device such as a transceiver module and a heat sink mounted on the first panel. The thermally conductive pathway is disposed between the electronic device and the heat sink so that heat from the electronic device is transmitted via the thermally conductive pathway to the heat sink.

Abstract: An interface is provided, the interface having at least two form factors—one for interfacing to a connector on a fiber channel drive and one or more other form factors for interfacing to one or more other styles of connectors. The first form factor is on a first part of the printed circuit board and the others are on a second part of the printed circuit board. Further, the first part of the printed circuit board is on one side of the printed circuit board and the other part of the printed circuit board is on an opposite side. Further, one or more non-SCA connectors are mounted on a front side of a substrate for receiving one or more non-SCA style connectors and an SCA2 receptacle is mounted on the back side of the substrate for interfacing the non-SCA connector an SCA connector on a fiber channel cable. Further, the non-SCA2 connector can include a DB9 receptacle, a high speed serial data connector (HSSDC), or RJ-45. Further, the fiber channel drive can receive a media interface adapter (MIA).

Abstract: A solderable metallized plastic contact includes an element made of a polymer where an electrically conductive material covers a surface of the element so as to form an electrically conductive region on the element. The electrically conductive material is electroplated to the surface of the element. The electrically conductive material in the electrically conductive region is solderable. The electrically conductive material in the electrically conductive region does not delaminate from the surface of the element. Additionally, a method of manufacturing a solderable metallized plastic contact is also disclosed.
