At one end of a shielded cable (Item 4) measure a distance between “Window Min” to “Window Max”(Table B-6) and cut a window (max size 0.35”) in the jacket to expose the shield (Figure B-2). Usecaution when cutting the jacket to avoid damaging the individual braids of the shield. When dealingwith a densely populated connector with many cables, it may prove beneficial to stagger the windowsthroughout the “Window Min” to “Window Max” range. If staggering is not needed the “IdealWindow” length is recommended.Suggested tools to accomplish the window cut:• Coaxial Cable Stripper• Thermal Stripper• Sharp Razor BladeNOTEBackhellSizeNumberof PinsStd/HDFloatMin(inches)FloatMax(inches)Ideal Float(inches)WindowMin(inches)WindowMax(inches)IdealWindow(inches)1 9/15 1.25 2.25 1.75 2.75 5.25 4.252 15/26 1.5 2.5 2.0 3.0 5.5 4.53 25/44 1.5 2.5 2.0 3.0 5.5 4.54 37/62 1.5 2.5 2.0 3.0 5.5 4.55 50/78 1.5 2.5 2.0 3.0 5.5 4.5
