    Digicon Cable Preparation

    1 Cut the cable perpendicular to the length of the 3


    cable using a sharp cutting tool. A tool designed
    specifically for cutting coaxial cable is
    recommended to reduce cable distortion during
    the cutting process. Use care not to cut the
    cable at an angle.

    2 Use a cable stripper designed to


    expose 1/4" of center conductor
    To create the cable preparation,
    and 1/4" of dielectric. Digicon
    rotate the stripper forward three
    Positive connectors will not fit other cable
    rotations around the cable, then
    Stop preparation dimensions.
    reverse for three additional

    cable until it hits the positive stop.
    Release pressure on the stripper
    handle to close the tool around the
    cable.

    Tip: Use a cable stripper designed for coaxial cable and calibrated for a ¼” x ¼” preparation. Digicon connectors will not fit properly on other
    cable preparation dimensions. Do not use carpet knives, pocket knives or other tools to prepare the cable.
