Abstract

The present invention provides a delatch mechanism for releasing a latching status between a positioning structure of an optical connector and a positioning hole of a receptacle. The delatch mechanism comprises a supporting base, and a delatching unit. The supporting base is arranged on the optical connector. The delatching unit comprises a rotating base, a pressing structure and a release lever, wherein the rotating base is rotatably coupled to the supporting base, the pressing structure is arranged on the rotating base and lean against the optical connector, and the release level is coupled to the supporting base. Alternatively, the present invention further provides an optical connector having the delatch mechanism arranged thereon so that the latching status between the optical connector and receptacle may be released to pull out the optical connector from the receptacle by operating the delatch mechanism.
