Connector Wiring Instructions
Coaxial / SMA

Step 1. Slide nut and gasket over cable jacket as shown. Cut and strip jacket exposing braid by .27 length.

Step 2.comb out braid and taper forward towards conductor. Then slide clamp over braid until it bottoms out on
cable jacket. 

 

Step 3. fold braid wire back over clamp and trim as necessary so that they are clear of clamp shoulder.  

 

Step 4. cut and trim dielectric exposing conductor to .13 length. Do not nick conductor. Wet conductor using a non acid core 60 - 40 tin lead solder. Do not overheat.
Step 5. slide contact on to conductor and solder in place holding squarely against dielectric. Remove excess solder. Do not
overheat cable dielectric as swelling may prevent insertion of cable into shell.
Step 6. slide cable assembly into shell as far as it will go. Slide nut into shell and screw in place with wrench until tight (20-25 in/lb torque). Hold cable and shell rigid while rotating nut.
