How to use

Prepare the RG-174 or RG-316 cable by stripping the outer jacket, braid and dielectric to the lengths recommended for SMB crimp fittings. Slide the supplied shrink tube onto the cable before fitting. Insert the prepared cable into the SMB plug and perform the crimping operation with the appropriate crimp tool for the connector and cable size. After crimping, position the shrink tube over the termination and apply heat to shrink it, ensuring insulation and strain relief.

Recommendations

Use a correctly sized crimp tool and follow manufacturer strip/crimp dimensions for RG-174 and RG-316 to ensure reliable electrical contact. Apply heat evenly to the shrink tube and avoid excessive force on the terminated connector during installation.
