Abstract

See full text

An optoelectric module includes a housing having a front face with an opening designed to receive an optical transceiver nestingly engaged therein. The optoelectric module includes a discontinuity in an outer surface positioned to cooperate with a spring latch formed in an inner surface of the cage to latch the module in a fully nested orientation within the cage. An actuator is mounted on an outer surface of the housing and movable from an orientation in which the housing is latched in the cage to an orientation in which the actuator engages the spring latch and disengages it from the discontinuity. A bail latch is pivotally mounted for movement between a stored position and a module removal position and is engaged with the actuator to move from the stored position to the module removal position with movement of the actuator from the latched orientation to the delatched orientation.
