US Patent 9250402 Pluggable optical transceiver having pull-pull-tab

A pluggable optical transceiver is disclosed. The optical transceiver provides a pull-tab assembled with a body of the transceiver. The pull-tab comprises a pair of arms and a handle. The arms in an end portion thereof each provides a leg set in a guide formed in the body. Sliding the pull-tab to disengage the optical transceiver from the cage, the leg is slid within the guide to push the end portion of the arm outwardly. The handle provides in an end thereof a bar including a slope. The optical fiber pulled out from the optical connector set in the optical receptacle of the transceiver rides on the slope even when the transceiver is set in the cage by the upside-down arrangement.
