Zusammenfassung: | A shielded I/O connector that supports high density connections. The shielded connector has a cage with channels. At least a first channel is configured to receive a transceiver such that it may be plugged into a port in a connector housing at an end of the cage. At least a second channel is configured to dissipate heat by enabling air to flow adjacent the transceiver. The rate of air flow in the second channel is increased with a diverter at the end of the second channel to smooth the flow of air through the second channel and out of one or more orifices. The diverter may be simply formed by shaping the housing of a connector at an end of the cage. The orifices may be formed by channel in the connector housing and openings in surfaces of the cage that bound the second channel or the housing channel. |
