    摘要: A flex cable is slit between conductor traces to provide conformable strips, at least one of which can be flipped to expose one of the conductor traces to the other side of the cable. This increases the design flexibility of the flex cable because the conductor traces can be exposed on both sides of the cable without laser ablation or etch operations to remove the substrate. Also, because the flex cable is slit along its length, it is more able to conform to different connector locations, thereby obviating the need for designing a different flex cable to accommodate changes in mating hardware.

    摘要: The invention provides a locking bail that when in the locked position prevents the removal of an optical link module from a host system and when in the unlocked position provides a handle that facilitates the removal of an optical link module. By providing a locking bail, the packing density of modules in a host may be increased. The bail provides a handle which is accessible from the front of the module when the module is unlocked. The locking bail typically engages inclined planes on latch arms that secure an optical link module to the host system.

    摘要: An enhanced electrical arrangement for a computer includes a circuit board, and a module arranged essentially parallel to the circuit board. An array connector is positioned between the circuit board and the module. The array connector causes the circuit board to be in electrical communication with the module. A clamping arrangement is provided for urging the circuit board and the module toward each other, by exerting a constant force against the module to cause an electrical connection between the circuit board, array connector and the module. The clamping arrangement includes an alignment assembly that is mounted to the circuit board to help align the module, and a load assembly to provide the force on the module. The alignment assembly and the load assembly are removably engageable with one another. When the load assembly is engaged with the alignment assembly, the load assembly can apply the force on the module which urges the module toward the array connector and the circuit board. Further, when the load assembly is disengaged from the alignment assembly, the force is removed from the module.
