Latching mechanisms for pluggable electronic devices. In one example embodiment, a latching mechanism includes a driver and a follower. The driver is configured to rotate about an axis between a latched positioned and an unlatched position. The follower is operably connected to the driver and configured to slide axially along an electronic device toward the driver as the driver is rotated from the unlatched position to the latched position and slide axially along the electronic device away from the driver as the driver is rotated from the latched position to the unlatched position.
