Abstract
Transceiver receptacles (12a, 12b) are mounted on both sides of an intermediate circuit board (10). Each of the transceiver receptacles includes a host connector (14) disposed within a shielding cage (16). The host connector is electrically connected to the intermediate circuit board and is configured for electrically mating with a respective transceiver module (20), and the shielding cage is configured to receive and guide the respective transceiver module into mating engagement with the host connector. An electrically conductive bezel spacer (36) is disposed in gaps between the shielding cages to reduce propagation of electromagnetic interference. Mating connectors (41, 42) electrically connect the intermediate circuit board (10) to a main circuit board (40).
