<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a ground structure of cage for an optical module which has enhanced ESD resistance and will not affect the patterns of signals drawn on a printed circuit board. <P>SOLUTION: The ground structure is such that the structure includes an optical module mounted to a printed circuit board via a cage for the optical module; a face plate attached to the printed circuit board and having a cage-penetrating hole inserted by a tip of the cage for the optical module, when mounted to the printed circuit board; and a spring member which is attached to the printed circuit board and is deformed by contact with the face plate, when the face plate is attached to the printed circuit board. The spring member contacts with the cage for the optical module through deformation due to contact with the face plate. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
