Abstract

A pluggable optical/electrical module is disclosed. One or more features operate to decrease electromagnetic interference are implemented, which features include deforming the portions that mate together to form the housing, placing elbow deformities on extending fingers to more properly seal the housing convex shape to housing to seal gaps between multiple sections, and placing an EMI insulating material within an opening that is formed for the latch that locks the module in place in a chassis.
