Abstract
A cage assembly for supporting electronic modules includes first and second support positions for first and second electronic modules, a detector for reacting to the presence of the first electronic module in the first support position and a locking mechanism configured to lock the second electronic module in the second position, wherein the presence of the first electronic module in the first position blocks premature actuation to release the locking mechanism.
