Communication Module and Signal Transmission Device Including the Same

摘要

Space usable in various usages is ensured between a board and a communication module mounted on the board. A communication module is mounted on a motherboard inside a signal transmission device, and the communication module includes: a module frame having a lower plate and an upper plate facing each other and that contains a module board between the lower plate and the upper plate; and a male connector that is protruded from the lower plate and connected to a female connector provided in the motherboard. When the male connector is connected to the female connector, a gap is formed between the lower plate of the module frame and the motherboard.
