ABSTRACT:
A pluggable optical transceiver module includes a housing with first and second ends, upper and lower surfaces, a channel and an opening slot formed thereon. A locking boss is slidably mounted within the housing and has a locking detent projecting therefrom and through the opening slot of the housing to engage an opening in a latching tab located in a receptacle cage. The locking boss also has a top end with an inclined surface, which is disposed within the channel of the housing. An actuator arm is slidably mounted within the channel of the housing and has an internal end with an inclined surface thereon. The inclined surface of the actuator arm cooperates with the inclined surface of the of the locking boss to free the locking detent from the latching tab of the receptacle cage when the actuator arm is moved within the channel of the housing.
