Guide rail assembly for receiving optoelectronic modules

摘要

A guide rail assembly (1) having two guide rails (10, 30) stacked one above the other and mountable onto one printed circuit board (PCB) (2) is designed for receiving two optoelectronic modules. A mounting device (20) fixes the guide rails in fixed relation to one another and onto the PCB. The guide rails are identical to one another and each includes a frame (11) for receiving an optoelectronic module and a metallic cover (12) for providing EMI shielding to the optoelectronic module. The mounting device includes four posts (21) which fix the lower guide rail to the PCB and elevate the upper guide rail above the lower guide rail. Fastener members (22) fix the upper guide rail securely to the posts.
