An optoelectrical transceiver module is adapted to be retained in a metal
cage (6). The optoelectrical transceiver module includes a latch (137) of
a housing (1) of an optoelectrical assembly (10), an ejector (17) for
disengaging the latch from a retaining tab (611) of the cage, a
de-latching mechanism (20), an upper cover (4), and a lower cover (5). The
de-latching mechanism includes a driving device (7) and a linking rod (8).
The driving device is rotatably attached to the upper cover, and movably
engaged with the ejector. Pulling the driving device drives the ejector to
slide into the housing, whereupon the latch of the optoelectrical
transceiver module is released from the retaining tab of the cage.
