A self-grounding input/output (I/O) card assembly in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention includes at least a printed circuit board (PCB), at least one BNC connector attached to the PCB, and a metallic tab formed on the PCB. In accordance with the present invention, the metallic tab is formed on the PCB such that when the I/O card assembly is installed into a metallic housing, the metallic tab contacts the metallic housing and bends back until the metallic tab makes contact with the body of the BNC connector thus creating a continuous grounding loop between the BNC connector, the self-grounding I/O card and the metallic housing. |
