3. Remove any foil in the braid as shown in
4. Fold the braid back over the jacket and trim the braid to the length as defined under
Length C in
5. Flare the inner, outer braids and the outer foil shield only. Do not flare the inner foil
shield (last foil around dielectric).
6. (If using a coax stripper, skip this step.) Being careful not to cut into the copper of the
center conductor, remove the foil and cut the dielectric to the length shown under
Length B in
7. If the conductive foil is burred, then smooth out the burr so that the edge (area where the
dielectric material was removed) is smooth and provides a lead-in for the connector
mandrel.
