1. INTRODUCTION

zSFP+ surface mount PT connector and cage assembly seating tool kits listed in Figure 1 are used to seat the

cage assemblies described in Figure 1 onto the pc board. The cage assembly contains compliant pin contacts

to allow solderless pc board installation. The seating tool is not designed to seat the connector.

Read these instructions thoroughly before using the seating tool kit.

NOTE

Dimensions on this sheet are in metric units [with U.S. customary units in brackets]. Figures and illustrations are for reference

only and are not drawn to scale.

Each seating tool kit consists of a seating tool and a wall support. The seating tool and wall support are also

available separately. The seating tool has cutouts (two located on each side) to accept the protruding part of

the standoffs of the cage assembly. The wall support must be installed into the ports of the cage assembly.

The top of the seating tool provides a surface to accept the force applied by the application tool to seat the

product onto the pc board. During seating, the back and sides of the seating tool protect the cage assembly

from damage. The wall support supports the individual ports of the cage assembly.
