Cable Connections

1. At one end of the connection cable, strip back the cable jacket 30 mm (1.18 in.) to expose the shield and

twisted wire pairs. Then strip back the cable’s shield 24 mm (0.94 in.) to expose the twisted wire pairs. Remove

4 mm (0.16 in.) of insulation from the wires of each twisted pair. Then connect the stripped wires of each

twisted pair to their corresponding terminals (shown in Table 1).

Important: Cable wire colors are subject to change at any time. If the connecting cable wire colors are different

than those listed above, make sure that each twisted pair is terminated to the same terminal numbers

on both ends of the cable.

2. Make sure that the connecting cable’s shield is tightly secured under the cable shield clamp (A). If a foil shield

is used (Quabbin cable), the blue side of the foil shield is non-conductive. In this case, fold back the foil to

expose the silver side of the foil to the shield clamp before installing.

3. Tightly secure the connecting cable’s outer jacket under the cable strain relief clamp (B).

4. The terminal adapter’s two mounting holes (C) can be used to secure the adapter to a flat surface. Use #8

screws (not supplied) of an appropriate length for the application.

5. Connect the other end of the connecting cable to the second terminal adapter. Repeat steps 1 through 4.
