Connector/cable assembly procedures
1. Grasp a socket cover strip between thumb and
forefinger of both hands, with the liner facing you.
Rotate the outermost cover down against the adjacent
cover on the strip, breaking it from the liner. Pull
laterally away from the strip, leaving a clean adhesive
edge on the removed cover. (See Figure 4)
2. Firmly press ribbed side of cable into alignment grooves
on cover. The adhesive will help it stay in place. (See
Figure 5)
3. Visually inspect to insure that:
• Cable is properly aligned to cover grooves.
• Cable end is flush with cover for end terminations,
or perpendicular to cover for midspan terminations.
4. Place the cable/cover sub-assembly between the guides
on the locator plate, cover side down. (See Figure 6)
5. Orient and position connector body — contacts down
over the cable/cover sub-assembly, engaging cover
retainer devices with body slots. (See Figure 6)
6. Lower the assembly press handle fully to complete the
connection. (See Figure 7)
7. Raise press handle and remove completed assembly.
Visually inspect to insure that:
• Cover is fully seated and parallel with the body.
• Cable is properly aligned with the cover grooves.
• Cover retaining devices are completely engaged with
the body.
