2. DESCRIPTION
Each seating tool is an assembly of plates, bars, and
an adapter to seat the different sizes of the backplane
headers. Figure 1 lists a cross-reference of the
backplane header size to the seating tool part number
to be used.
During seating, the seating tool sits inside the header
housing engaging the housing floor and contact
shoulders, preventing the contacts from pushing out of
the housing.
