ABSTRACT:
An I/O card (10) comprises a frame (12) sandwiched between a top cover (16) and a bottom cover (18) whereby an internal PC board (14) can be protectively embedded within a space defined between the top cover (16) and the bottom cover (18), and seated on the frame with two connectors (25, 29) positioned at two opposite ends for connection to other complementary connectors. Each cover (16, 18) includes coupling devices or hook sections (32) on its periphery for latchable attachment to the peripheral surfaces of the I/O card (10). Each cover (16, 18) further includes plural alignment/reinforcement tabs (60, 62) which are adapted to be received within corresponding alignment slots (56, 58) in the frame (12), respectively, so that the covers (16, 18) can be guidably attached to the frame (12) wherein the tabs (60, 62) of the top cover (16) will not conflict with those of the bottom cover (18) during assembling for alignment consideration, and each pair of tabs (60, 62) of the top cover and the bottom cover, respectively, can be tightly engaged with each other for anti-twisting consideration.
