Claim Text:
1. A communication module mounted on a substrate together with a plurality of other communication modules, comprising: a case including a second connector which is inserted into/pulled out from a first connector provided on the substrate; a latching protrusion which has a variable protrusion length from the case and which can be latched with/unlatched from a latching unit provided on the substrate; an elastic member which presses the latching protrusion toward outside of the case so that a state of latching of the latching protrusion with the latching unit is maintained; and an operating unit which moves the latching protrusion toward inside of the case against pressing of the elastic member to unlatch the latching protrusion from the latching unit, wherein an operating direction of the operating unit is a direction orthogonal to both of an arranging direction of the communication module and other communication module adjacent to the communication module and an inserting/pulling-out direction of the first connector.
