1. Check that the center contact is a free fit in the front insulator and that you have all the connector

parts. The termination technique and cable preparation dimensions for the sockets are the same.

2. Strip the cable to the dimensions shown taking care not to damage the braid, dielectric or inner

conductor. Slip ferrule over cable.

3. Slide the connector body over the cable so that the rear body goes between the dielectric and the

braid. Gently twisting and rocking the connector body to spread the braid will help. Care must be

taken to ensure that no strands of braid are trapped under the body.

4. Slide the crimp ferrule forward over the braid until it butts up against the backnut. Crimp using

ITT Cannon crimp tool fitted with suitable die set (see table).

5. Trim the center conductor so that 3,50 (.138) protrudes from the face of the rear insulator. Position

the crimp type center pin over the end of the center conductor. The wire should be visible through

the inspection hole when positioned for crimping.

6. A separate crimping tool will be needed to crimp the center pin. A suitable tool being the

ITT Cannon crimp tool T4519.

7. The center pin together with the connector body is inserted into the locator of the crimp tool, taking

care that the center pin does not fall off in the process! As the connector body is inserted, the spring

loaded plunger positions the center pin against the rear insulator. With the connector firmly pushed

into the locator, crimp the center pin. (Ensure assembly is resting on bottom of locator.)

8. Withdraw the connector. Assemble the front and rear bodies. If a free fit front insulator is utilised

ensure that it is positioned the correct way round. Finally tighten the two body sections using

torque wrenches ITT Cannon part numbers T0854/M8/E and T0854/13/E, to a torque of 0,98 -

1,06 Nm (140 - 150 in. ozs.).
