VIRGINIA PANEL CORPORATION ARINC USER’S MANUAL: SECTION 3 COAXIAL RECEIVER TERMINAL (50 OHM) ASSEMBLY P/N 610 104 155 FOR RG178 (CABLE DOUBLE SHIELDED) PARTS/TOOLS REQUIRED: Hex Crimp Tool (P/N 910 101 115) Extraction Tool (P/N 910 112 104) Center Conductor Forming Tool (P/N 910 121 119) Center Conductor Enlarging Tool (P/N 910 121 143) Inspection Gage (P/N 910 121 146) Recommended Inspection Depth Gage (P/N 910 121 156) Recommended DIELECTRIC CRIMP RING BRAID CONDUCTOR WIRE INSTRUCTIONS OUTER INSULATION 1. Slide crimp ring onto wire (Fig. A). 2. Strip outer insulation, cut braid, and expose conductor wire as shown (Fig. A). .17/.14 .33/.25 .49±.02 9 FIGURE A OUTER INSULATION 3. Turn braid back over outer insulation (Fig. B). 4. Slide shrink tubing over the dielectric to edge of braid (Fig. B). Heat shrink tubing. 5. Solder wire into center conductor and clean (Fig. C). Note: Center conductor and dielectric must touch. 6. Slide shield conductor over center conductor until the center conductor stops in the teflon shield (Fig. D). 7. Check to ensure center conductor is flush with teflon shield (Fig. E). 8. Check retention force on one-half to four ounces using a 0.0195 diameter male pin. If retention force is too low, remove shield conductor and resize center conductor using the Center Conductor Forming Tool (P/N 910 121 119). If the retention force is too high, resize the center conductor using the center conductor enlarging tool (P/N 910 121 143). Repeat steps 5,6, and 7. 9. Turn braid back toward the front of the shield conductor (Fig. F).

If the braid extends beyond shoulder, trim braid back to face of shoulder. SHOULDER BRAID 11. Slide crimp ring into position over the braid (Fig. G). 12. Crimp using the Hex Crimp Tool (P/N 910 101 115) - in Hex Position “A” for the larger end first and in Hex Position “B” for the smaller section of the crimp ring (Fig. G). To ensure proper crimp position, slide shield conductor over dowel pin on hex crimp tool (Fig. H). Wire must not be allowed to pull on center conductor during crimping (for example, long wire hanging down to floor).
