3.4.2 Cable Connection in the D-Sub Connector Mating Plug
The connections on the back panel are plug-in type. Keep the conductors as short as possible and
connect them to the terminals. The connector housings are conductive (metallized), i.e., part of the
shield, and must be fastened to the back panel by screws.
Mounting a cable:
•
Open the connector housing (catches)
•
Release and open the cable clamp
•
Remove approx. 50-60 mm of the cable insulation
•
Shorten the shield to 5 mm and bend it over the cable
sheath
•
Remove 3mm wire insulation and connect it by soldering
•
Insert the pin unit
•
Put the cable under the cable clamp
The grounding tongue presses on the shield bent
backwards; the clamp presses on the cable sheath
•
Close and tighten the cable clamp
•
Check the strain relief
•
Insert the mounting screws on both sides
•
Close the connector housing (catches)
The shields must be connected to the metal housings on
both ends of the cable.
