Install Open-Style
Connectors

To attach a plug-in open-style connector to a round media (thick or thin) trunk
line:

1. Strip 65 mm (2.6 in.) to 75 mm (2.96 in.) of the outer jacket from the

end of the cable, leaving no more than 6.4 mm (0.25 in.) of the braided
shield exposed.

2. Wrap the end of the cable with 38 mm (1.5 in.) of shrink wrap, covering

part of the exposed conductors and part of the trunk line insulation.

3. Strip 8.1 mm (0.32 in.) of the insulation from the end of each of the

insulated conductors.

4. Tin the last 6.5 mm (0.26 in.) of the bare conductors so that the outside

dimension does not exceed 0.17 mm (0.045 in.).

5. Insert each conductor into the appropriate clamping cavity of the

open-style connector or the screw terminal on the device, according to
the color of the cable insulation.
