Prepare your cable…

Fold exposed braid over the jacket.

Leave the inner foil attached to the dielectric and make sure that the foil is undamaged and smooth.

For ”Quad shield”, ”Tri shield” and ”Super shield” cables: Remove the outer braid and foil only. Fold back the inner braid.

Mount the connector…

Use of the Rubber Tool will ensure

an excellent grip on the cable!

* Press the front part of the connector (with the built-in ”tool”) against the cable and turn it slowly to prepare the foil to enter into the connector. (* Optional operation – normally not necessary if Corning Cabelcon’s Rotary Cable Stripper has been used)
