ABSTRACT:
A connector module is provided that includes a longitudinal body adapted for installation in a computer equipment rack capable of housing a plurality of server units positioned in a stack configuration. The longitudinal body has a plurality of data connectors mounted along an outer surface. Each data connector is located at a different location along the outer surface of the longitudinal body and is adapted to receive a signal source introduced from a front side of the outer surface. The connector module includes a collection of signal paths coupled to the plurality of data connectors. Signal paths are positioned toward a backside of the outer surface. The longitudinal body is adapted for installation in a transverse orientation relative to the plurality of server units in the stack configuration such that each data connector is positioned in proximity to a connector mounted on a corresponding one of the server units.
