Low Insertion Force (LIF) connector

Warning! When installing a cable into an LIF connector, care must be taken to avoid bending the
edges of the cables and damaging the contacts on the cables.

How to Insert a Cable into the LIF Connector

1. Look at the connector and take note as to which side the contacts are located.
2. Look at the circuit board - many boards will have the word "contacts" stamped on them to indicate
which side has the contacts.
3. Insert the cable squarely into the connector.
Note: Verify the cable is installed straight into the connector. If the cable is not installed properly,
then intermittent failures could occur.
