Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A cable retention subsystem includes a frame member and at least one board coupling member that is located on the frame member and couples the frame member to a board. A frame alignment member is located on the frame member and aligns a cable connector included on a cable subsystem with a board connector included on the board when the frame alignment member is engaged with a cable alignment member included on the cable connector. The cable retention subsystem also includes at least one frame retention member located on the frame member that engages with the cable connector when the cable connector is coupled with the board connector, and resists movement of the cable connector in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the board.
