Summary:A retainer includes a base member operable to be snapped onto a connector and a retaining member positioned substantially perpendicular to the base member for securely retaining the card coupled to the connector. The base member has an inner open area with dimensions substantially matching corresponding outside dimensions of the connector for a snug fit. The retaining member has a proximal section slidably coupled to a distal section. The proximal section is fixedly coupled to the base member. A length of the distal section is extensible beyond the proximal section to securely retain the card coupled to the connector.
