Abstract
The disclosed apparatus may include (1) a cage designed to hold an optical module, (2) a ramp that is secured to the cage and supports a heat sink such that the heat sink is capable of moving along the ramp, and (3) at least one spring having one end coupled to the ramp and another end coupled to the heat sink, wherein (A) prior to insertion of the optical module into the cage, the spring exerts a force at least partially directed along an axis of insertion of the optical module and (B) insertion of the optical module into the cage moves the heat sink along the ramp such that the force exerted by the spring (I) rotates away from the axis of insertion and (II) presses the heat sink against a surface of the optical module. Various other apparatuses, systems, and methods are disclosed.
