1. INTRODUCTION
This specification covers the requirements for application of SFP DWDM connector and cage assembly to
interconnect SFP DWDM fiber optic transceivers to host printed circuit (pc) boards used in the communications
industry and peripheral component interconnect (PCI) applications. The connector is available in 20 positions
with contact spacing on 0.8--mm centerlines. The cage assembly serves as a housing for the connector and
transceiver. The cage assembly is designed to be bezel--mounted.
The connector is a housing with right--angle surface mount contacts. The connector features an embossed
triangle for Pin 1 identification, a chamfered corner for orientation, alignment posts that provide stability for
placement on the host pc board, standoffs to allow easy pc board cleaning after soldering, and a card entry slot
that accepts a 1.0+0.1--mm thick integrated circuit card housed in the transceiver.
The cage assembly is a frame with a cavity and a port having compliant pin contacts for mechanical retention
to the host pc board and electromagnetic interference (EMI) suppression pins to provide EMI suppression. The
cavity accepts a heat sink (if used) and the port accepts the transceiver. The cage assembly features a hard
stop which controls the insertion depth of the transceiver and a transceiver locking latch which holds the
transceiver in place. Along the front perimeter of the cage assembly are EMI suppression springs which
impede any EMI emissions coming from the mated transceiver.
The dust cover is used to prevent contaminants from entering the chassis when the transceiver is not installed.
The connectors are supplied in tape--mounted form for manual or high--speed automatic machine placement
(typically vacuum pick and place). The cage assemblies are supplied in thermo--formed tray packaging for
manual placement.
When corresponding with personnel, use the terminology provided in this specification to facilitate your
inquiries for information. Basic terms and features of this product are provided in Figure 1.

3.7. Solder Paste Characteristics
1. Alloy type shall be:
Tin--lead solder—63 Sn/37 Pb, 60 Sn/40 Pb, or 62 Sn/36 Pb/2 Ag
Lead--free solder—compatible with pure tin or gold, for example, SAC305 (96.5 Sn/3 Ag/0.5 Cu or
SAC405 (95.5 Sn/4 Ag/0.5 Cu)
2. Flux incorporated in the paste shall be rosin, mildly active (RMA) type.
3. Paste will be at least 80% solids by volume.
4. Mesh designation --200 to +325 (74 to 44 square micron openings, respectively).
5. Minimum viscosity of screen print shall be 5¢10% cp (centipoise).
6. Minimum viscosity of stencil print shall be 7.5¢10% cp (centipoise).
3.8. Solder Volume
Minimum solder volume (V) (before curing) for each circuit pad is calculated by multiplying the pad length (L)
by the pad width (W) by the stencil thickness (T):
2.0(L)¢0.5(W)¢0.15(T) = 0.15 mm3(V)
Solder volume for each connector must be 0.15 mm3per contact solder tine.
Solder volume may vary depending on solder paste composition.
3.9. Solder Paste Thickness
Solder paste thickness for the connector contact solder tines must be at least 0.15.
3.10. Stencil
The stencil aperture is determined by the circuit pad size and stencil thickness. It may be any shape as long as
it prevents solder bridging from one pad to another. Generally, a thinner stencil will need a larger aperture to
maintain the given volume of solder paste. The stencil should be 0.15 thick. The stencil layout must be
designed using the dimensions provided on the customer drawing for the specific connector.

Rev D 7 of 15Tyco Electronics Corporation
3.11. Solder Mask
When soldering, a solder mask is recommended between all circuit pads to minimize solder bridging between
pads. The mask must not exceed the height of the pad. If a trace is run between adjacent pads on the pc
board, a solder mask must be applied over the trace to prevent bridging and wicking of solder away from the
connector contact solder tines. Mask most suitable is Liquid Photo Imageable.
All traces must be covered by solder mask in the solder deposit area. Exposed traces could cause bridging and create
a short, or wick solder away from the solder tines, producing a weak solder joint.
3.12. Connector Placement
Connectors should be handled only by the housing to avoid deformation, contamination, or damage to the contact
solder tines.
The connector must be soldered to the host pc board BEFORE seating the cage assembly; otherwise, the soldering
process will cause damage to the cage assembly.
A. Registration
The connector contact solder tines must be aligned with matching circuit pads and alignment posts aligned
with matching holes before placing the connector onto the host pc board.
B. Position
Optimally, the connector contact solder tines should be centered on the host pc board circuit pads.
However, slight misalignment is permissible as shown in Figure 5.
Host PC Board
Contact Solder Tine Centered on
PC Board Circuit Pad Preferred
Contact Solder Tine Overhang

Figure 5
C. Seating
Because the connector alignment posts are for clearance and fit only, the force required to seat the
connector is minimal. Apply only that force necessary to seat the contact solder tines into the top surface
of the solder paste. The alignment posts must be inserted into the host pc board holes and the standoffs
must be seated on the board. See Figure 6.

3.13. Soldering
A. Process
The connector must be soldered using non--focused infrared (IR) reflow or equivalent soldering technique.
When mounting to both sides of the host pc board, the surface tension of the solder when it is in the
liquidus state will hold the connector on the board.
Reflow temperature and time may vary depending on the size of the host pc board and placement of other
components. The reflow temperature and approximate time to which the connector can be subjected is
specified in Figure 7.
Excessive temperatures may cause connector housing degradation or plating deterioration. It is recommended that
component temperatures not exceed 230_C [446_F] when using tin--lead solder and 260_C [500_F] when using
lead--free solder.

B. Cleaning
After soldering, removal of fluxes, residues, and activators is necessary. Consult with the supplier of the
solder and flux for recommended cleaning solvents. Cleaners must be free of dissolved flux and other
contaminants. It is recommended cleaning the pc board on its edge. If using aqueous cleaner, standard
equipment such as a soak--tank or an automatic in--line machine should be used. Common cleaning
solvents that will not the affect the connector for the time and temperature specified are listed in Figure 8.
Consideration must be given to toxicity and other safety requirements recommended by the solvent manufacturer.
Refer to the manufacturer’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for characteristics and handling of cleaners.
