ABSTRACT:
A three part card guide for attachment to a host circuit card has opposing guide rails to receive transverse edges of an auxiliary circuit card. The guide rails attach to either end of a connector support which holds a first electrical connector and an auxiliary circuit card may be slid between the guide rails so that a second electrical connector along its rearward edge engages the first electrical connector. The guide rails and connector support assembly have hooks, to attach them to the host circuit card, which may be engaged with longitudinal motion of the assembly. The electrical connector, when attached to the host card through the connector support, prevents such longitudinal motion, locking the assembly in place.
