What is claimed is: 1. A module, comprising a panel comprising a groove; an injector/ejector coupled to the panel, the injector/ejector being configured to reside substantially in the groove when the injector/ejector is in a closed position; and a latch member coupled to the panel comprising a body
What is claimed is: 1. A module, comprising a panel comprising a groove; an injector/ejector coupled to the panel, the injector/ejector being configured to reside substantially in the groove when the injector/ejector is in a closed position; and a latch member coupled to the panel comprising a body and a release portion, the latch member being configured to latch the injector/ejector in a closed position, wherein the body of the latch member resides substantially in the groove; wherein the latch member comprises a spring portion, wherein the spring portion is configured to bias the latch member against the injector/ejector to maintain the injector/ejector in a closed position. 2. The module of claim 1, wherein the latch member is configured to snap into engagement with the panel. 3. The module of claim 1, wherein the latch member comprises a plurality of mounting protrusions, wherein the panel comprises a rear wall comprising a plurality of apertures, wherein the protrusions are configured to snap into the apertures to couple the latch member with the panel. 4. The module of claim 1, wherein at least one of the apertures is slotted to allow a portion of the latch member to move relative to the panel. 5. The module of claim 1, wherein the panel comprises a fold, wherein the fold defines the groove. 6. The module of claim 1, wherein the panel comprises a folded metal sheet. 7. The module of claim 1, wherein the panel comprises a fold and at least one flange along an outer edge of the panel, wherein the flange extends in the same direction as the fold. 8. The module of claim 1, further comprising a spring configured to urge the injector/ejector into an open position when the latch member is moved out of engagement with the injector/ejector. 9. The module of claim 1, further comprising an enclosure coupled to the panel wherein the enclosure and the panel each comprises a slot configured to allow a portion of the injector/ejector to move through the slot during use of the injector/ejector. 10. The module of claim 1, wherein the module comprises a pair of injector/ejectors, each of the injector/ejectors configured to engage one side of a chassis. 11. The module of claim 1, further comprising an enclosure housing a portion of the module, the enclosure and the panel each comprise a slot that allows a portion of the injector/ejector to pass through, wherein the enclosure, the panel, and the injector/ejector form an enclosure for containing electromagnetic emissions. 12. The module of claim 11, further comprising an EMI gasket between the enclosure and the panel, wherein the EMI gasket comprises a slot, the slot being configured to allow a portion of the injector/ejector to pass through, wherein the enclosure, the panel, the injector/ejector, and the EMI gasket form an enclosure for containing electromagnetic emissions. 13. A module, comprising a panel comprising a groove; an injector/ejector coupled to the panel, wherein the injector/ejector is configured to reside substantially in the groove when the injector/ejector is placed in a closed position; and a latch member coupled to the panel the latch member configured to latch the injector/ejector in a closed position, wherein the latch member is configured to snap into at least one aperture in the panel; wherein the latch member comprises a spring portion, wherein the spring portion is configured to bias the latch member against the injector/ejector to maintain the injector/ejector in a closed position. 14. The module of claim 13, wherein the latch member comprises a body and a release portion, wherein body of the latch member resides substantially in the groove. 15. The module of claim 13, wherein the latch member comprises a plurality of mounting protrusions, wherein the panel comprises a plurality of apertures, wherein the protrusions are configured to snap into the apertures to couple the latch member with the panel. 16. The module of claim 13, wherein the latch member comprises a plurality of mounting protrusions, wherein the panel comprises a plurality of apertures and a spring portion, wherein the protrusions are configured to snap into the apertures to couple the latch member with the panel, wherein the spring portion is configured to bias the protrusions against sides of the apertures such that the latch member is retained on the panel. 17. A system, comprising: a rack enclosure; a module configured to couple with the rack enclosure, comprising: a panel comprising a groove; an injector/ejector coupled to the panel, wherein the injector/ejector is configured to reside substantially in the groove when the injector/ejector is in a closed position; and a latch member coupled to the panel comprising a body and a handle portion, the latch member configured to latch the injector/ejector in a closed position, wherein the body of the latch member resides substantially in the groove; wherein the module comprises a slot, wherein a portion of the injector/ejector is configured to move through the slot during use of the injector/ejector, wherein the rack enclosure, the module, and the injector/ejector form an enclosure to contain electromagnetic emissions produced by components of the module. 18. A module, comprising a panel comprising a groove; an injector/ejector coupled to the panel, the injector/ejector being configured to reside substantially in the groove when the injector/ejector is in a closed position; and a latch member coupled to the panel comprising a body and a release portion, the latch member being configured to latch the injector/ejector in a closed position, wherein the body of the latch member resides substantially in the groove; and wherein the panel comprises a fold, wherein the fold defines the groove. 19. A module, comprising a panel comprising a groove; an injector/ejector coupled to the panel, the injector/ejector being configured to reside substantially in the groove when the injector/ejector is in a closed position; a latch member coupled to the panel comprising a body and a release portion, the latch member being configured to latch the injector/ejector in a closed position, wherein the body of the latch member resides substantially in the groove; and an enclosure coupled to the panel, wherein the enclosure and the panel each comprises a slot configured to allow a portion of the injector/ejector to move through the slot during use of the injector/ejector. 20.
