A heat-dissipating mechanism with a thermo-conducting sheet is arranged between a pluggable optical transceiver and a heat sink. One of the optical transceiver and the heat sink includes the thermo-conducting sheet. The heat sink is assembled with a cage to be movable vertically and against a downward force. The optical transceiver includes a projection that comes in contact with the heat sink. The heat sink includes a rail with a pocket. When the transceiver is inserted into the cage, the projection first runs along the rail to lift the heat sink upward; subsequently, the projection is set within the pocket to allow the thermo-conducting sheet to contact the transceiver.

What is claimed is: 1. A mechanism to dissipate heat from a pluggable optical transceiver set in a cage to a heat sink assembled with said cage through a thermo-conducting sheet put between said transceiver and said heat sink, said mechanism comprising:at least a projection provided in a rear end of said optical transceiver;at least a rail with a pocket provided in said heat sink; anda mechanism provided in said cage and said heat sink to cause a downward force to said heat sink,wherein said projection first lifts said heat sink upward against said downward force by running on said rail of said heat sink when said optical transceiver is inserted into said cage, andwherein said projection finally is set within said pocket of said heat sink to have said thermo-conducting sheet come in contact to said optical transceiver when said optical transceiver is set in a final position within said cage.
