Abstract
A component cage for detachable mounting an ancillary component such as a hard disc drive in a housing for an electronic circuit is described. The cage has internal step surfaces to engage support runners of the component. The formation of elongated slots in the cage to accommodate support runners is avoided, improving the electromagnetic shielding ability of the cage.
