Abstract
A riser retention apparatus includes a board. A component connector is mounted to the board. A support frame is coupled to the board adjacent the component connector and extends from the board. A riser guide is located on the support frame and operable to engage a riser and guide a riser connector on the riser toward the component connector. A riser retention member is operable to couple to the support frame to provide a retaining force to a riser in order to retain the riser connector in engagement with the component connector. A riser including a plurality of components coupled to it may be coupled to the component connector and the support frame and riser retention member may be used to support the riser and retain the riser in the component connector.
