ABSTRACT:
A network device and system are provided. The network device may include a chassis configured to receive a line card and an input/output (I/O) card that operatively connects to a network via cabling. The chassis may include a bus structure. The bus structure may include an I/O interface to couple to a chassis interface of the I/O card, and a line card interface to couple to a chassis interface of the line card using a connector away that includes at least one RF conductor which may be associated with a set of connectors configured to shield the at least one RF conductor.
