ABSTRACT:
A resilient conductive coupler electrically couples a conductive housing of a modular transceiver to ground contacts of a printed circuit board. A transceiver carrier is mounted to a printed circuit board and the resilient conductive coupler is selectively positioned and mounted to the printed circuit board so as to make a low impedance electrical connection with ground contact pads of the printed circuit board. The resilient conductive coupler is sized and positioned such that a portion of the coupler wipes the conductive housing of the transceiver as the transceiver is slidably inserted into the carrier. The coupler electrically couples the conductive housing of the modular transceiver to the ground contact of the printed circuit board when the modular transceiver is seated within the carrier so as to minimize undesired emissions from the modular transceiver when the transceiver is operable.
