NOTE
Reference Section 13.1.2 for recommended solder sleeves and flat braid. The same
recommendations are applicable to this technique.
Secondary Method:
Solder a Flat Braid (Item 6) to the folded back shield on the prepared cable assembly (Item 4).
Ensure a solid electrical connection through the use of acceptable soldering practices. Use care to
avoid applying excessive heat that burns through the insulation of the center conductors and
shorts the shield to the signal wire. Slide a minimum of 0.75 inches of Teflon heat shrinkable
tubing (Item 5) onto the prepared wire assembly and shrink using a heat gun. The chose size of
heat shrinkage tubing must accommodate both the number of conductors present in the cable as
well as the Flat Braid (Item 6) to be attached.
Teflon Heat Shrinkable Tubing:
Reference the following MIL-Spec for general Teflon heat shrinkable tubing (M23053/5-X-Y)
