pc board so that the contacts and alignment posts
are aligned and started into the matching holes in
the pc board.

proper seating according to the following:
a. the widest section of each compliant pin is
inside its intended pc board hole
b. each alignment post is in its intended pc
board hole
c. the connector and cage assembly is seated
on the pc board with a seating height—
measured from the top of the cage assembly
(not including the springs or elastomeric gasket)
to the top of the pc board— given in Figure 2
d. if present, the gap between the standoffs and
the pc board is no more than 0.10 mm [.004 in.]
For detailed application requirements of the

It is recommended that each operator be made aware
of, and responsible for, the following steps of daily
maintenance.

use objects that could damage the components.
2. When the seating tool and wall support are not
in use, store them in a clean, dry area.

and established standards.
