ABSTRACT:
An I/O card (10) includes a frame (12) shielded by outer covers (14, 16), and an internal PC board (20) positioned therein. A connector (24) is positioned at one end of the I/O card (10) for mating a corresponding memory card connector in the computer. A deflectable I/O port assembly (30) which can be angularly displaced with regard to the I/O card (10), extends outwardly at the other end and comprises at least one standard I/O connector (32) whose dimension is substantially larger than the thickness of the I/O card (10). A displaceable section (42) is connected between the standard I/O connector (32) and the I/O card (10) wherein conductors (34) are positioned along the displaceable section (42) for electrically connecting the standard I/O connector (32) and the PC board (20).
