Inline tray assembly for receiving multiple data cards

An inline tray assembly (300) for receiving multiple data cards is shown. The tray assembly (300) can include: an inline tray assembly (300) including a tray module (302) configured to receive multiple different data cards and a tray receptacle (304). The tray module (302) has a first data card receiving cavity (306) for receiving a first data card (308) and a second data card receiving cavity (310) for receiving a second data card (312). The first and the second data card receiving cavities (306) and (310) are shown aligned along an x-axis, in compass (314). The tray receptacle (304) has an opening (316) or interface configured to receive the tray module (302). Advantageously, this structure provides an improved assembly capable of accepting two or more data cards in a small area and minimizes the possibility of damage to the data cards. Thus, a user can easily insert and place data cards in a device.
