INTRODUCTION These instructions cover the assembly of the SSMA Straight Cable Plugs listed in Figure 1. Figure 1 also lists the cable types required for the various connectors. All of these connectors are solder–type connectors. Tooling required for the application is listed in Figure 2. 2. Remove the end portion of the cable jacket to expose the cable braid. 3. Trim the braid to the length shown in Figure 3. 4. Trim the cable dielectric to length. 5. Trim the inner conductor to length. 6. Flare the cable braid. 2.2.
