Cable Gland Assembly

Required components:

FTP Cat5e cable;
Unshielded RJ-45 connector;
Shielded RJ-45 connector;
Cable gland nut;
Split sealing grommet;
Cable gland threaded coupling.

NOTE

The outside diameter value of the FTP Cat5e cable should not exceed 7 mm.

NOTE

Cable gland can be assembled on pre-crimped cable.

Step 1

Crimp the unshielded RJ-45 connector (2) onto the cable using the crimping tool.

Pin-out scheme: T568B wiring standards

NOTE

Do not use the shielded RJ-45 connector on this end of the cable as it should be attached on the IDU end.

CAUTION

MAKE SURE THAT THE RJ-45 CONNECTOR IS WELL-CRIMPED. A LOOSE CONNECTOR CAN DAMAGE THE DEVICE. PLEASE NOTE THAT SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY.

Step 2

Put the cable gland nut (4), the split sealing grommet (5) and the cable gland threaded coupling (6) onto the pre-terminated cable.

Step 3

Insert the split sealing grommet (5) into the cable gland threaded coupling (6).

Step 4

Insert the connector into the socket until you hear a click.

Step 5

Screw the cable gland threaded coupling (6) into the port and tighten it.
