TE recommends connectors with fixed centerpins to ensure proper seating and to eliminate
oxidation, which occurs with bare center conductors. TE recommends the following CANARE
connectors:
FP-C4F for CommScope 2065V cable
FP-C55A for CommScope 2279V cable
FP-C71A for CommScope 2293K cable
CAUTION! The proper crimp tool and die must be matched by the connector type.
