ABSTRACT:
The present invention pertains to an electrical transceiver module having a peripheral device connector to receive copper plugs having a profile equal to or larger than the outer profile of the standard module housing profile. An embodiment of the invention provides an RJ-45 receptacle as the peripheral device connector of an SFP (Small Form Factor Pluggable) transceiver. An embodiment of the invention provides a receptacle outer profile being larger than the main transceiver body outer profile in at least one dimension. An embodiment of the invention provides for a transceiver having a latch member and a latching point point disposed on a main body between a first end and a second end of the housing.
