ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for the expansion of computer chassis input/output connections is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a computer chassis with an exterior wall having a rectangular access opening therethrough. Four ledges extend inwardly from the exterior wall, one ledge on each side of the access opening, with two ledges on opposite sides of the access opening each having two spaced slots. A card having at least one connector disposed thereon is connectable to an edge connector disposed on the system planar in the chassis. A rectangular panel having a base, with at least one aperture therethrough to receive the connector, and four walls extending perpendicular to the base, one wall on each side, is provided. Two of the walls on opposite sides of the panel each have two spaced hooks engageable with the slots in the ledges, such that the panel may be removably secured to the exterior wall on the interior of the chassis and permit access to the connector through the access opening.
