Abstract

See full text

A latch mechanism of a data communication module operates by a portion of an actuator sliding in a slot in the module housing that is oriented at an oblique angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the module housing, thereby translating a force generated in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the module housing into a force in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis as the bail of the latch mechanism pivots between a latched position and an unlatched position. A first end of the actuator is coupled to the bail through a cam pivot. A second end of the actuator has a pin portion that extends through or retracts into an opening in a wall of the module housing.
