CAUTION Do not use feed-thru type connectors. Use pin-type connectors only.
Using connectors with center conductors exceeding 0.080 inches (2.03 mm) in
diameter will damage the centerseizure mechanism.
Note Because Flex Max901e 6-port housings have extended port inserts to better
accommodate heatshrink boots, stinger lengths should be measured from the
mating surface of the O-ring on the cable connector to the tip of the center
conductor.
Note Close the housing whenever it is left unattended to keep moisture out of the
unit and protect the network from RF interference.
Prepare the coaxial cable for attachment:
a. Prepare the cable end as recommended by the connector manufacturer.
b. Measure the conductor length as shown in the above note.
c. Use Tables 4.3 and 4.4 to determine the correct center conductor length. Trim the
center conductor with wire cutters to the appropriate length. Figure 4.10 shows a
typical cable connector and common variations.
