More Information
Summary:A communication module including a circuit board having leading and trailing ends and a module axis extending therebetween. The communication module also includes a support wall that is coupled to the circuit board proximate to the leading end. The support wall extends transverse to the module axis and has a wall opening. The communication module also includes an electrical connector that is held by the support wall within the wall opening and has a mating face. The communication module also includes a board interconnect coupled to the circuit board. The communication module also includes a flex cable assembly that is coupled at one end to the array of electrical contacts and at an opposite end to the board interconnect. The electrical connector is permitted to float within the wall opening relative to the support wall.
