Abstract
An optoelectronic module is provided that has an adapter that interacts with the tongue actuator of a module removal tool to actuate the cage tongue. Actuation of the cage tongue causes the latch disposed on the optoelectronic module to retract from the opening formed in the tongue to allow the optoelectronic module to be removed from the cage by the module removal tool. The adapter enables the module removal tool to be used to remove the module from the cage despite the fact that the distance between the optical reference plane and the mechanical actuation plane and the distance between the optical reference plane and the bottom surface of the cage may differ.
