Abstract
A receptacle cage includes cage walls forming a module channel that is configured to receive a pluggable module. The cage walls extend between a front end and a rear end of the receptacle cage. At least one of the cage walls is a latch wall including a latching feature configured to engage a latch of the pluggable module to retain the pluggable module in the module channel. The receptacle cage includes a first slider pressure tab. The first slider pressure tab extends from the latch wall into the module channel. The first slider pressure tab is configured to engage a slider arm of the latch to press the slider arm inward toward a pluggable module body of the pluggable module.
