ABSTRACT:
An insertion tool for inserting substrates having contacts disposed at their distal ends into a connection device and a method of use. The tool of the present invention is useful with any size substrate and contact, but is particularly useful for wires or fiber optic cable having small diameters with insufficient rigidity to withstand the connection force required to insert the contact into the connection device. The tool includes a pusher arm which engages the contact and forces the contact into the connection device. As the contact is inserted, the pusher arm is also inserted into the connection device and is subsequently removed from the connection device.
