until the dielectric is firmly seated inside the connector.
Make sure there is no gap between the knurled end of
the connector and the cable jacket. Also be sure all
braid wires remain on the outside of the connector.

IMPORTANT!
A common installation failure occurs when the
connector is not seated properly onto the cable. In
these cases, the cable’s center conductor does not fully
engage the electrical contacts inside the connector. To
ensure full engagement, make certain that there is no
gap between the cable jacket and the knurled end of
the connector before you crimp on the ferrule. You may
need to
center the end of the conductor to achieve a
good fit.
