28. Apply SRM at semi-con cutback
Remove backings from the short angle-cut piece of SRM. Place tip of
SRM at semi-con step and tightly wrap to fill the step. Overlap semi-
con and insulation and taper down to meet insulation as shown.
Note:
If using UniShield* cable, apply SRM as shown to fill
conductive jacket step.

30. Position black stress control tube
Center black stress control tube over the completed connector area.
Be sure to equally overlap the Poly cable semi-con and the PILC cable
black conductive tube.
Repeat Steps 25-30 for the remaining two phases.

31. Check position of black stress control tubes; shrink in place
Center the tubes over the splice. Begin shrinking at the center (1)
of the tubes, working the torch around all sides of the tubes. After
the center portion shrinks, work towards one end (2), then to the
opposite end (3).
Note:
Do not point the flame at the cable semi-con.
The rings from the SRM wraps may be visible as the tubing shrinks.
Post heat the connector area until the tube surface is smooth and the
underlying SRM wraps are no longer visible.
