Instructions / Assembly

1) Use coax stripper to
strip cable so ¼” of
conductor and ¼” of
braiding are exposed.
(45-605 shown)
3) Using a cable cutter or
sharp edge tool, gently
score the outer foil at the
base of the coax jacket by
rotating blade.
(45-074 shown)
2) Fold back braiding, make sure
no braids are touching the
center conductor. Straighten
conductor if needed.
4) Find the seam/edge of the foil
and peel it off. Discard the foil.

IDEAL RG6-Quad Shield Coax Cable Prep Instructions
¼”
¼”
Quad cable has an extra foil and extra
braid layer, making the cable thicker than
standard dual/regular RG6 cable.
The extra layers provide additional
protection from outside signal
interference and signal leakage from the
cable itself. (EMI/RFI)
Removal of the outer foil layer and
folding down the inner braiding layer
makes it easier to push connectors on
to RG6 Quad coax without
compromising the quality and integrity
of the cable or connector.
