Abstract

A data communication module tab is sufficiently compliant in off-axis directions that it resists damage from forces in such off-axis directions, yet is sufficiently rigid in the direction of its longitudinal axis that a person can insert the data communication module into a cage and withdraw it from a cage by pushing and pulling the tab, respectively.
