The CXP Receptacle Assembly Removal Tool 
2161060-1 is designed to remove the connector listed 
in Figure 1 from the printed circuit (pc) board.

Dimensions in this instruction sheet are in 

millimeters [with inches in brackets]. Figures and 

illustrations are for reference only and are not 

drawn to scale.

using the removal tool.

2. DESCRIPTION

The tool consists of a removal blade assembly, and an 
upper tooling assembly. See Figure 1.

The side plates of the upper tooling assembly push on 
the pc board surface while removing the receptacle. 
The removal blade assembly engages the receptacle 
and pulls it from the pc board. The extraction screw 
draws the removal blade assembly up and pulls the 
CXP receptacle assembly up and off of the pc board.

3. REMOVAL PROCEDURE

There are (4) M2 screws holding the receptacle 

assembly to the pc board. These M2 screws must 

be removed prior to removing the receptacle 

assembly.

Be certain to remove tool assembly does not 

contact any components on the pc board during 

use. To prevent damage, the side plates can be 

routed to clear adjacent components. See Figure 2.
