Abstract
An apparatus is configured to contain a transceiver module. The apparatus includes a support member defining a space to receive the transceiver module. The support member has a front portion which forms a front of the support member and a mounting portion which is configured to physically and electrically connect with a circuit board. The apparatus further includes a face plate which attaches to the front portion of the support member. The face plate defines an opening through which the transceiver module passes when the transceiver module enters and exits the space. The apparatus further includes an electromagnetic interference shielding clip which installs around the face plate. The electromagnetic interference shielding clip includes four side portions which define hinges along mid-lines of the side portions. Actuation of the hinges enables the electromagnetic interference shielding clip to conveniently and easily install around the face plate.
