Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an electronic apparatus (100) comprising a backplane (120) and methods of assembling and disassembling such an apparatus. The electronic apparatus (100) comprises a chassis (101) having plural walls and a circuit board (140) fastened to a wall of the chassis, a surface of the circuit board having a plurality of conductive pads (146). A backplane (120) is fastened in a received position in the chassis substantially perpendicular to the circuit board. The backplane has a connector (130) at an edge of the backplane, the connector comprising a plurality of sprung conductive elements (132,134) which extend outwards beyond the edge of the backplane to make electrical contact with respective conductive pads (146) on the circuit board.
