1.3. Components
All pc board connectors are connected to pc boards by miniaturized ACTION PIN* contacts. In order to meet
the signal requirements, connectors can be stacked along the edge of the pc board as specified in
Paragraph 3.4.
All complete pc board connectors are equipped with guide and polarization posts. Connectors are also
available with a MultiPurpose Center (MPC) which can be used with a coding device as specified in
Paragraph 3.6. These alignment features can also be used to guide connectors (Types B and E) which do not
have any alignment features.
Thirteen different Types (styles) of connector modules are defined:

Male connectors of Type A, B, C, A/B, and M have 5 rows of signal contacts, and D, E, F, and D/E have 8 rows
of signal contacts. Optionally they can have 2 additional rows for ground return. Female connectors of these
types always have 5 or 8 rows, a twopart ground return shield is also offered. Refer to Paragraph 3.7 or
Application Specification 11419036 for ground return shield details.
Reducedcrosstalk shielding is based on signal transmission in wirepairs. The shields are located between
the columns (chicklets) in the female connectors. The shielding between rows is accomplished by grounding
the entire row c. Reduced crosstalk shielding combined with ground return shields is applied mostly for
differential pairs. The special contact cavities used in Types L, N and M can be equipped with coax, power or
fiberoptic contacts, which must be separately ordered.

3. REQUIREMENTS
3.1. Safety
Do not stack component packages so high that the shipping containers buckle or deform.
3.2. Storage
A. Ultraviolet Light
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light may deteriorate the chemical composition used in the connector
material.
B. Shelf Life
The connectors should remain in the shipping containers until ready for use to prevent deformation to the
contacts. The connectors should be used on a first in, first out basis to avoid storage contamination that
could adversely affect connector performance.
C. Chemical Exposure Limitations

Do not store connectors or components near any chemical listed below as they may cause stress
corrosion cracking in the components.
Alkalies
Amines
Ammonia
Carbonates
Citrates
Nitrites
Phosphates Citrates
Sulfur Nitrites
Sulfur Compounds
Tartrates
3.3. Product Materials

All ZPACK 2 mm HM Connector housings and chicklets are molded of UL94VO rated, glassfilled
polyesters.
The signal pin contacts are phosphor bronze and plated at the contact interface with gold. The signal
receptacle contacts are copper alloy and plated at the contact interface with gold. All contacts have a nickel
underplate and tin or tinlead plated pressfit leads.
Ground contacts are phosphor bronze and plated at the contact interface with gold. All contacts have a nickel
underplate and tin or tinlead plated pressfit leads.
3.4. Stacking of Connectors

A complete connector is composed by stacking one or more connector modules, end to end. All types of
modules can be stacked provided the following rules are obeyed:
S A module without guiding and polarization posts (Types B and E), shall only be used between modules
with guiding and polarization posts, otherwise it cannot cope with the allowed transverse and angular
misalignment.
S Extension modules (Types C, F, and N) shall only be used at the bottom end of a connector, together
with at least one module with MultiPurpose Center.
S All modules are 50 mm long, except the extension modules, which are 25 mm, 38 mm, and 44 mm long.
S Every module with a guiding and polarizing post has all the features of a complete connector and can be
used on its own.
3.5. Sequencing
In order to have an earlier engagement of specific contacts, three levels of contacts are defined. The following
rules apply to the usage of these levels:
S Contact row b shall only be loaded with male contacts level 1 and 2. This is because the available insertion depth of the free board connector is restricted in row b by the edge of the PCboard.
CAUTION
The use of level 3 contacts in row b will definitely lead to stubbing problems when used with right-angle receptacles.
!
S To neutralize the effect of inclination on the sequencing, the contacts of a specific level shall be located
at the outer corners of the complete connector.

3.6. Coding
Coding devices are clicked into the MultiPurpose Centers of the connector modules. They are polarized and
have sufficient clicking latches for fixed and free modules. A pair of tweezers is sufficient for easy mounting.
The coding devices are extractable by releasing the latches. This can be done by any object with a sharp point,
(e.g.) a small screwdriver. Only matching coding devices shall be equipped on mating connectors.
3.7. Shielding/Grounding
In case of the ground return connection the grounding rows (f and z) of the Male connectors shall be equipped
with level 3 contacts. Female connectors can be purchased with the upper ground return shield preapplied.
3.8. Mid-Plane/Feedthrough
Applications utilizing a midplane connection will require a spacer and a shroud for the opposite side of the
connector.
3.9. PC Boards
A. Material
The allowed material for pc boards is glassepoxy (NEMA grade G10, G11, FR 4, FR 5) corresponding to
DIN 7735 HgwTypes or DIN 40802 EPTypes.
B. PC Board Thickness
Fixed boards shall have a thickness between 1.4 and 5.6 mm, free boards shall have a thickness between
1.4 and 4.2 mm. When using tinplated product on pc boards less than 2 mm thick, contact Tyco
Electronics Product Information number at the bottom of page 1 for reduced insertion force product.

3.12. Connector Seating

The fixed board connectors are attached to the backplane and pressed into the pc board. These connectors
can only be mounted one way on the board. All modules, except modules B, A/B, E, and D/E have a location
peg for this purpose and Type B, A/B, E, and D/E modules can only be stacked in one way to them because
the modules are polarized. Care has to be taken to mount the Type B, A/B, E, and D/E connectors in the
proper direction.
Connectors must be inserted in such a way that a max. distance of 0.2 mm between the pc board surface and
the connector is obtained and a maximum difference in insertion depth of 0.1 mm between adjacent
connectors. Refer to Figure 8. Connectors must be inserted parallel to the board. For free board connectors
care should be taken to prevent exerting force on the front housing. The free board connector modules are
mounted along the edge and pressed into the pc board.
Where the board connector modules are sufficiently held on the pc board by their ACTION PIN contact
termination, location pegs are not provided. Location pegs are present on Type L, M, N. Fixed board
connectors Type A, C, D, and F only have a location peg to prevent wrong assembly.
Pressing the connectors in the pc board shall only be done by special tools. These tools can be mounted in
various insertion machines. See Section 5, TOOLING.

3.13. Shield Installation

A. Ground Return Shield
Ground return shields are only applied to the standard female connector. The upper shield is applied to the
connector by Tyco Electronics. Once the upper shield and connector are inserted in the pc board, the
lower ground return shield may be applied. See Application Specification 11419036 for more details.
Figure 9 shows the connector with both shields applied.

B. Reduced Crosstalk Shielding

RC shielding is inside a female connector and does not need special application treatment.
3.14. Mating
DANGER
Before mating or unmating connectors, electrical current shall be disconnected.
A. Misalignment and Inclination

In the direction perpendicular to the mating direction a misalignment of 2 mm may exist without any effect.
An inclination of 2 around the normal axis will not effect proper mating of the connectors. Tolerances can
be seen in Figure 10 and apply only when connectors with guide lugs are separated by only one Type B
or E module without lugs. Guiding and polarizing lugs at the MPC are of Types A, D, M, and L at the ends
of Types C, F, and N and also in the middle of Types A/B and D/E.

B. Mating Dimension
Full mating of connectors is necessary to ensure a good connection and to obtain the maximum signal
transmission performance. The fullymated dimension from the top surface of the pc board to which the
pin header is mounted and the first row of contacts in the receptacle is given in Figure 11.

3.15. Repair/Replacement
A. Signal Contacts
Damaged signal contacts must not be used. If a damaged signal contact is evident, it must be removed
and replaced with a new one. Signal contacts can only be replaced in male connectors.
B. Power and Coaxial Contacts

Damaged power and coaxial contacts must not be used. If a damaged power or coaxial contact is evident,
it must be removed and replaced with a new one. Extraction tool 1062421 may be used to remove these
contacts.
C. Fiber-Optic Contacts
Damaged fiberoptic contacts must not be used. If a damaged fiberoptic contact is evident, it must be
removed and replaced with a new one. For female fiberoptic contacts, a reaming tool (4347791) is
required to remove the guide ridges used in the female housing.
D. Connectors
Damaged connectors and chicklets must not be used. If a damaged connector or chicklet is evident, the
entire connector must be removed and replaced with a new connector. To ensure plated throughhole
integrity, connectors should only be replaced no more than two times, or a max of three insertions per pc
board. Tools for removing connectors from pc boards are provided in Section 5, TOOLING.
4. QUALIFICATIONS
4.1. General
The ZPACK 2 mm HM Interconnection System is qualified according to IEC 60512 and has been Recognized
by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) in File E28476, Vol. 54.
4.2. Part Qualification Levels

Tyco Electronics offers four different levels of performance based on industry standard qualifications. A
connectors performance level is distinguished by its dash number as shown below in increasing level of
performance:
xxx1
xxx4
xxx9
1xxx9
IEC 610764101 performance level 2

IEC 610764101 performance level 1
Telcordia GR1217CORE quality Level III, Central Office Applications
Telcordia GR1217CORE quality Level III, Uncontrolled Environment Applications
5. TOOLING
Figure 12 provides tooling part numbers related to the ZPACK 2 mm HM Interconnection System.
S PC Board Support
A pc board support must be used to prevent bowing of the pc board during the insertion of a connector
into the board. It should have flat surfaces with holes or a channel wide and deep enough to receive any
contact pins that may protrude below the pc board surface during installation of the connector.
S Seating Tools
Seating tools have been designed to push on the contact and seat the connector on the pc board. The tool
will prevent contacts from backing out of the housing and prevent damage to the housing.
S Power Units
Power units are automatic or semiautomatic machines used to assist in the application of a product.
A power unit supplies the force to seat the connector onto the pc board using seating tools. Power for the
insertion tool must be provided by application tools (with a ram) capable of supplying a minimum
downward force of 89 N [20 lbs] per contact. Total insertion force is dependent on the size of the
connector and number of connectors being simultaneously inserted.
S Arbor Frame Assembly
Manual arbor frame assemblies are used to exert a downward force used to apply connectors to a pc
board using seating tools. Commercially made arbor frame assemblies are available.
