2X1 Through Hole Cage Assembly With LightPipe 2170409-6 2170409-5

What are SFP+ cages?

The SFP+ cage is a metal enclosure mounted on a circuit board to house an SFP+ optical transceiver module. Its primary function is to provide physical support and shielding for the SFP+ module, with metal fingers in each cage to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Key functions:

1. Metal fingers prevent electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity.
2. The cage assembly provides mechanical support for the inserted SFP+ module, ensuring that the module is fixed in place and remains stable.
3. Metal materials help dissipate heat, ensuring the SFP+ transceiver performs stably in high-temperature environments.
4. Metal fingers on the cage enhance the contact interface, ensure a secure connection between the module and the system, and improve signal transmission performance.
