First cut cable to required length and then unscrew coax plug and slide screw cap over cable
|
Strip away approximately 23mm of outer insulation. Next, gather strands of copper braid together and wind back around the outer insulation. If cable is tape and braid, cut tape to be flush with outer insulation |
|
Strip away about half of the inner insulation around the inner copper wire. Check that none of the copper braid is touching the inner copper wire. | |

Open claw, slide over copper screening and pinch to tighten. Loosen screw in plastic connector slide over inner copper wire. Tighten screw securely ensuring head of screw does not protrude above plastic. Do not over tighten. Reassemble coax plug. If plastic connector does not have retaining screw, an effective connection will still be made by re-assembling the plug.
|
Cut off any excess inner copper wire flush with the end of the plug. | |||
