Installation Guide

1) Use coax stripper to strip
cable so ¼” of conductor
and ¼” of braiding are
exposed. (45-605 shown)
3) Center cable over back end of
connector and push connector
on to cable until fully seated.
2) Fold back braiding, make sure
no braids are touching the
center conductor. Straighten
conductor if needed. Do not
remove foil that is attached to
the white dielectric (RG6/6Q)
4) Cable is fully seated when white
dielectric is flush with the bottom
of the nut. Pin should slightly
extend beyond edge of nut.
5) Place assembly in compression
tool (30-793 shown) and
compress.
6) Verify connector is fully
compressed. Connector is now
shorter in length than an
uncompressed connector.

IDEAL F Compression Termination Instructions
RG6 coax is used in this example. General preparation instructions are the same for all IDEAL F compression
connectors. When working with RG6 Quad cable, the outer foil can be removed, and the inner braiding should be
folded down. This makes it easier to push the connector on to the cable.
