Description
The following instructions are used for removing a 2-by-12
connector from a PCB:
Operation
1. Disassemble the two halves as delivered by unscrewing the
screws on the top of the upper tooling. See Figure 2.
2. Remove the upper tooling from the support tooling.
3. For the zSFP+ product, remove the flange, if applicable, from
the connector assembly to ensure full insertion of support
tooling into connector ports.
4. Insert the support block assembly into the connector assembly
until it is fully seated. See Figure 3.
5. Place the top removal assembly over the support block and the connector assembly, aligning the front tab of
the top removal assembly with the back edge of the support block. See Figure 4.
6. Place the washers and screws into the holes in the top removal assembly, and turn until seated on the top
plate using a 5/32” hex wrench to tighten the screws.
7. Tighten each screw, one turn in an alternating pattern, until the connector assembly is removed from the PCB.
See Figure 5.
