4. CABLE and CONNECTOR PREPARATION
a. To get a solid and reliable fit it is important that the cable and connector be properly
prepared before compressing the connector onto the cable.
Handle
Sealing Sleeve
Connector Adaptors
Back Plate
Adaptors for BNC, RCA,
and F connectors
b. Using a cable stripper for the appropriate size cable strip the cable to expose
approximately ¼” of center conductor.
c. Using the cable stripper strip the cable jacket to expose approximately ¼” of cable
braid and dielectric.
d. Fold back exposed braid and make flush with cable jacket.
e. If using a BNC compression connector take the connector’s center pin (separate item)
and mount on the cable’s center conductor. If needed, trim the cable’s center
conductor just enough so the pin is flush against the cable’s dielectric. Then take the
BNC compression connector and slide over the center pin and onto the cable until the
center pin is visible and flush with the BNC connector.
f. If using an F compression connector simply slide the connector over the prepared
cable where the center conductor protrudes 3/16” out from the connector nut.
g. If using an RCA compression connector simply slide the connector over the prepared
cable.
