ABSTRACT:
A conductive coupler electrically couples a conductive housing of an electronic device, such as a transceiver, to a conductive bulkhead in a reliable manner such that the electronic device is accessible through an opening in the bulkhead and a low impedance connection between the housing and the bulkhead is assured. The disclosed coupler comprises a conductive sleeve and tabs which are formed so as to capture the bulkhead between cooperative tabs when the coupler is urged into a mounting position. When the coupler is disposed in the mounting position a low impedance electrical connection between the coupler and the bulkhead is provided. The device includes resilient conductive members which extend outward from the device housing. The conductive members are urged against the interior surface of the sleeve and electrically couple the conductive housing of the device to the coupler when the device is disposed within the sleeve in a device mounting position.
