20090196625 | OPTICAL TRANSCEIVER MODULE HAVING A LATCHING BAIL MECHANISM THAT USES A CAM LOCK CONFIGURATION - An optical transceiver module is provided that has a pivoting bail latching mechanism that is extremely stiff and locks via a cam locking configuration rather than relying on spring-loading forces to bias the latching mechanism to and maintain the latching mechanism in a desired position. The stiffness of the pivoting bail latching mechanism provided by the cam locking configuration better ensures that forces exerted the transceiver module will not cause the transceiver module to come out of the cage while latched. | 08-06-2009 |
