Installing the Coaxial Cable and Coaxial Cable Strain Relief
1. The
DXE-CSR8X-1
Cable Strain Relief has the parts needed to mount to the
previous assembly. The assembly will be slightly different that what is described in
the
DXE-CSR8X-1
instructions.
2. Connect one end of the
DXE-8XDX100
coaxial cable to the BALUN.
Fully insert the PL-259 to the balun and tighten the collar.
3. Loosely mount the
DXE-CSR8X-1
Cable Strain Relief bracket to the
DXE-BMB-4P
bracket using the
DXE-ECLS-150
Studded Band
Clamp, with a flat washer and a Nyloc hex nut as shown.
4. Loop the coax cable through the ‘P’ clamps and form approximately a 6”
diameter loop of cable.
5. Mount the ‘P’ clamps on both sides of the bracket using the hardware (1” hex bolt, 1/4” spacer,
three star washers, and Nyloc hex nut) as shown. Using pliers will help hold the clamps and parts
together while you get the Nyloc hex nut started.
6. Once the cable is aligned between the Balun and the first ‘P’ clamp, tighten
the Nyloc hex nut that holds the Studded Band Clamp at the balun end of
the bracket. Ensure the cable going through the ‘P’ clamps is properly
aligned and has the loop. Tighten all the parts holding the ‘P’ clamps in
place.
7. The completed
DXE-CSR8X-1
Cable Strain Relief installation
should look
as shown below.
