Abstract

A circuit board mounted data card reader includes an elevated card receiving assembly for receiving a data card such as a SIM card, UIM card, or the like, and a support assembly. The card receiving assembly is elevated or spaced away from the circuit board by the support assembly for conserving space on the circuit board and allowing other components to be mounted to the circuit board beneath the data card reader.
