Abstract
A light fixture includes an electronic accessory module such as a wireless communication module, and a clip for mounting the accessory module to a panel of the light fixture. The clip includes features for snapping the accessory module to a panel of the light fixture, for example to a printed circuit board holding light emitting diodes or to a sheet metal panel that is part of the structure of the light fixture. The clip may hold the accessory module electronics away from any metal parts of the light fixture. In the case that the accessory module is a wireless communication module, this spacing may facilitate robust wireless communication.
