XFP Release Mechanism
The XFP release mechanism is a metal stamped product with a molded top which is color-coated for different wavelengths. The three piece solution that attaches to the metal enclosure includes a bail, a slide, and two pins.
 
The XFP release mechanism includes a bail latch design for easy insertion and removal into the standardized XFP cage. It is widely accepted across the world as the Industry Standard for XFP transceiver modules. The robust and minimally intrusive design allows module manufacturers to easily incorporate the design into a standard XFP transceiver module. The XFP release mechanism conforms to XFP MSA and is also RoHS compliant.
