Abstract
The optical transceiver configured with a pluggable function according to the present invention provides new releasing mechanism of the transceiver from the cage. The transceiver comprises an optical receptacle, an actuator with a latching projection, a bail assembled with the receptacle such that, by rotating the bail as sandwiching the receptacle by the legs thereof, the latching projection may be released from the cage. The end of the bail comes in contact to the actuator to make a seesaw motion for the actuator to draw the latching projection to disengage with the cage.
