Clip for XFP Heat Sink Retention
The 1489948-2 is a retaining clip from the TE Connectivity ChipCoolers series, designed specifically to secure heat sinks on XFP optical transceiver modules. It is an accessory — not a connector — that holds the thermal management assembly in place against the module body.
This clip is listed for use with XFP heat sinks. It fits the standard XFP module footprint — the clip arms engage the heat sink edges and retain it against the transceiver cage. It is not a universal clip; compatibility depends on the heat sink's edge profile matching the clip's grip geometry.
