Termination Instructions: GORE® Ethernet Cables & ITT Cannon OctoGig™ Connector System
Technical Information, Inglês
W. L. Gore & Associates developed the following procedures based on our best practices for terminating our 4-pair Ethernet cables for Cat6A protocol with the TT Cannon OctoGig™ Connector System, socket and pin versions. By following these steps, you can maximize your assembly’s performance when connected to avionics and vectronics.
Please note: While these termination instructions offer a helpful guide, they should always be used alongside current connector system manufacturing instructions for best results.
About the Termination Instructions
These Termination Instructions are intended solely for terminating Gore’s 4-pair Cat6A Ethernet cables with the socket and pin versions of the ITT Cannon OctoGig™ Connector System. They first detail the tools and materials you’ll need, which include:
- Male connector pin (980-2002-551)
- Female connector socket (980-2002-552)
- Soft-jawed pliers, flush cutters, hand strippers and round cable cutters
- Sharpie, plastic pick, tweezers, small scissors, braid brush and ruler
- Digital Calipers with .001-inch precision or better
- ITT Cannon Crimp Die, DCM Crimper (M22520/2-01)
Preparing the cable and parts and terminating the socket connector (A End) and pin connector (B End) are all covered thoroughly, with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions and photos to help you ensure proper termination.
