    Abstract: Cable interface devices and mounting assemblies are provided for data storage assemblies. A data storage assembly can include media, such as a solid-state drive, a cable interface housing, and a cable interface housing locating feature. A cable interface device is mounted within the cable interface housing. The cable interface device includes a body extending in a first direction that defines an opening at the front side with a protruding connector of a solid-state drive extended through the opening. The cable interface device further includes electrically conductive contacts at least partially disposed inside the body and exposed to the opening. The cable interface device also includes a cable interface device locating feature positioned on, or defined by, the body and complementary in shape to the cable interface housing locating feature, to collectively locate the cable interface device within the cable interface housing.

    Abstract: A connector system includes a cage assembly in which a thermally conductive heat sink and a connector are mounted. The heat sink includes a base, a ramp extending downwardly from the base and a pedestal extending downwardly from the base. A thermal interface material is disposed on lower surface of the pedestal. A module can be inserted into the cage assembly and connected to the connector and to the heat sink. Thermal energy generated by the module is transferred to the heat sink which dissipates the heat by convention. The ramp protects a leading edge of the thermal interface material form engagement by the module during insertion of the module into the cage assembly.

    Abstract: A routing assembly for an electronic device has a front face with an array of connectors ports and each of the connector ports contain a first connector mounted therein. A first end of a cable can be directly terminated to the first connectors and the cables can be embedded in a tray that is configured to extend toward a chip package. The cables extend from the tray and terminates to a second connector that can be connected to the chip package so as to provide a communication path between the first connector and the second connector that substantially bypasses a supporting circuit board.
