Abstract: In general, the present disclosure is directed to locking arrangements for use with optical subassembly housings, such as small form-factor pluggable (SFFP) housings, that include a handle member configured to rotate about the housing to allow a user to select a target/desired orientation. Preferably, the locking arrangement couples to a pluggable housing that is configured to removably couple into a receptacle of an optical transceiver cage or other suitable enclosure. The locking arrangement further includes a handle member rotatably coupled to the pluggable housing, the handle member being configured to allow the pluggable housing to releasably lock within the receptacle. The handle member is also preferably configured to maintain a user-selected orientation such that the handle member remains at a given angle relative to the pluggable housing in the absence of a user-supplied force.
