Patent ID: 7114857

Claim:
A transceiver module comprising: a transceiver body including a rocker return spring at a proximal end thereof; a handle pivotably connected to said proximal end of said transceiver body at first and second arms of said handle, said handle including first and second cams on said first and second arms, respectively, and said handle having an unlatched and a latched position; and a rocker pivotably mounted on said transceiver body, said rocker including a distal end having a tab for extending through an opening in said transceiver body and for extending through an opening in a transceiver cage to thereby hold said transceiver body in said transceiver cage when said handle is in a latched position, said rocker including a proximal free end that is biased against said first and second arms of said handle, wherein when said handle is an unlatched position, said first and second cams lift said proximal end of said rocker to cause said tab to retract from said transceiver cage opening thereby allowing said transceiver body to be removed from said transceiver cage in a proximal direction.
