1. INTRODUCTION
Mini-SAS HD Seating Tool Kits 2018875-[ ] are used to
seat the Mini-SAS HD connector and cage assembly

(pc) board. The connector and cage assemblies
contain press-fit contacts to allow solderless pc board

Dimensions in this instruction sheet are in
millimeters [with inch equivalents i.n brackets].
Figures are not drawn to scale.
2. DESCRIPTION
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
(three located on each side) to accept the protruding
parts of the cage assembly. The wall support must be
installed into the port(s) 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
connector and cage assembly onto the pc board.
During seating, the back and sides of the seating tool
protect the connector and cage assembly from
damage. The wall support supports the individual
port(s) of the cage assembly to prevent the cage
assembly from collapsing.
3. ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
3.1. PC Board Support Fixture (Customer Supplied)
A pc board support must be used to provide proper
support for the pc board and to protect the pc board
and product from damage. The support fixture must be
designed for specific needs using the following
recommendations:
• It should be at least 25.4 mm [1 in.] longer and
wider than the pc board.
• It should have flat surfaces with holes or a channel
large enough and deep enough to receive any
protruding components of the connector and cage
assembly and to prevent the pc board from bowing.
3.2. Application Tool
Power for seating tools must be provided by an
application tool (with a ram) capable of supplying a
downward force of 44.5 N [10 lb-force] per contact.
Manual Arbor Frame Assembly 58024-1 is available
for use with these seating tool kits. Refer to Instruction
Sheet 408-6923 for operating procedure.
