Assembly Instructions
SMP Right Angle Female Solder Style for .086 OD Semi-Rigid Cable
1. Identify tools (5 piece parts) and connector parts (2 piece parts).
2. Strip cable jacket and dielectric to dimension shown. Do not
nick center conductor. Clean all debris from prepared cable.
3. Make sure slot in connector contact is aligned with cross hole in
body as shown. Insert cable into cross hole in connector body,
making sure cable jacket bottoms out against internal shoulder
of connector body.
4. Insert connector assembly into interface location fixture and
clamp cable in vise using body holder fixture as shown. Tighten
stop screw until light pressure is applied between connector
body and cable jacket.
5. Solder contact to center conductor through rear access port in
connector body using a minimum amount of solder and heat for a
good joint. Do not allow solder to build up along exposed center
conductor.
6. After center conductor solder joint has cooled, solder connector
body to cable jacket, using a minimum amount of solder and heat
for a full fillet joint. Take care so that solder does not flow onto
anti-rock ring or into rear access port. Allow assembly to cool
before removing connector from vise and location fixture.
7. Using a fixture plate as shown, press end cap into rear access
port using a .156 (3.96) diameter flat punch until fully seated
within body counter bore.
8. Best results are obtained when contact location is flush to .004
(0.10) recessed from reference plane. Interface location fixture
is pre-set at factory, but can be adjusted to control location.
