BIASING ASSEMBLY FOR A LATCHING MECHANISM

摘要

An example embodiment includes a communication module. The communication module includes a shell, a printed circuit board assembly ("PCBA") at least partially positioned within the shell, an optical transmitter electrically coupled to the PCBA, an optical receiver electrically coupled to the PCBA, and a biasing assembly. The biasing assembly includes a latch cover configured to be attached to the shell, a slider, and a spring. The slider is configured to operate a latching mechanism that releasably connects the module to a host device through a mechanical connection. The slider includes a main body including a first end, an arm extending from the first end, and a stopper feature extending from the arm. The spring is positioned between the latch cover and the stopper feature to bias the latching mechanism.
