Mounting the AN205-P antenna
1. Strip cable jacket to the following dimensions (in inches), as illus-
trated in Figure 12: ‘Stripping the coax cable jacket,’ below: a=0.57,
b=0.34, c=0.14, d=0.43. Do not nick the center conductor.

2. “Figure 13: Flared cable braid” below: Slide outer ferrule on as shown.
Slightly flare the end of cable braid, as shown, to facilitate insertion
into inner ferrule.

3. Place center contact onto center conductor so that it butts against
the cable dielectric. Crimp the contact in place using Amphenol tool
handle #227-944 and Cavity B of Die Set 227-980-3.
4. “Figure 14: Completed TNC connector” below: Install cable assembly
into body assembly so inner ferrule slides over dielectric and under
braid. Push cable assembly forward until contact seats in insulator.
Slide outer ferrule over braid and up against connector body. Crimp
outer ferrule using Cavity A of tools specified above. The connector
ferrule-to-cable junction can be sealed and protected using adhe-
sive-lined heat shrink.
