An improved rail includes two side portions, and a mid portion
interconnected between the two side portions. The mid portion and the two
side portions form a component that defines three sides of a transceiver
module space. The rail further includes a blocking structure coupled to
the component. The blocking structure is adapted to (i) permit a
connecting portion of a transceiver module to connect with a connector
when the transceiver module engages the rail and moves into the
transceiver module space toward the connector and when a circuit board
side of the transceiver module faces the printed circuit board, and (ii)
prevent the transceiver module from contacting the connector when the
transceiver module engages the rail and moves into the transceiver module
space toward the connector and when a heat dissipation side of the
transceiver module faces the printed circuit board.
