Hi, I`m trying to add a SFP pressfit cage to my layout. This cage has a lot of holes and ground tabs which are connected by the aluminium case of the product and therefore directly connected to the chassis ground. That means every hole of this sfp cage should be connected to the chassis ground, too. Within the case there`s the sfp connector located with 20 signal connections. These signals and grounds belong to the system ground. Do you know a good application note with screenshots how to route these signals to the sfp connector as well as routing the chassis ground connection? Because the sfp cage holes are around the sfp connector located, I have only one small gap to route all 20 signals to the connector with the system ground. The other solution would be to leave the three sfp cage holes located behind the connector unconnected. best regards Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List technical documents are available at: http://www.si-list.net List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
