Connectors

Is there any suggestion on how to mount the female connectors? Because they are to less to cover all the pins.
Is the VoCore soldered to the Dock? Because these two guys hold together quite strong....

The dock is just a push fit onto the VoCore, although there are lots of connectors so it is quite a tight fit. There is some heatsink paste between the processor and the Ethernet connector which might also make it cling a bit. I don't whether there's a particular plan for the female header connectors but I've just solder on ones covering the pins I need to use.

I just tried to separate the boards in the router and the heatsink paste acts like glue and it lifted the connector top off the RJ45.
