(d) Crimp the splice.
(9) Align the center of one seal sleeve with the center of the splice on that wire.
(10) Shrink the sleeve into position.
(11) Align the center of the other seal sleeve with the center of the splice on that wire.
(12) Shrink the sleeve into position.
(13) Push the shield tube toward Cable B and Cable C until the forward end of the tube is against the
end of the cable jacket of Cable B.
(14) Attach the end of the shield tube to the shields of Cable B and Cable C:
(a) Twist the end of the shield tube down so that the end of the tube is tight against the shields
of both cables.
(b) Push the large solder sleeve toward Cable B and Cable C until the forward edge of the
solder ring is 0.10 inch from the end of the outer jackets of both cables.
(c) Apply heat to the center of the solder sleeve until the solder melts and flows into the shield
tube and the shields of both cables.
(15) Attach the remaining free end of the shield tube to the shield of the Cable A:
(a) Pull the shield tube across the splice so that it is tight.
(b) Remove the length of the shield tube that makes an overlap with the end of the outer jacket
of the Cable A.
(c) Push the small solder sleeve toward the end of the cable until the rear edge of the solder
ring is 0.10 inch from the end of the outer jacket of the cable.
(d) Apply heat to the center of the solder sleeve until the solder melts and flows into the shield
tube and the shield of the cable.
(16) Push each seal insert toward the splice until the forward end is against each solder sleeve on
each side of the splice.
(17) Align the center of the outer sleeve with the center of the seal sleeves.
NOTE: On each end of the splice assembly, the outer sleeve should make approximately a 1.0
inch overlap with the cable jacket.
(18) To shrink the outer sleeve into position:
(a) Apply heat from the center of the sleeve toward one end of the sleeve until the longitudinal
line cannot be seen.
(b) Apply heat from the center of the sleeve toward the other end of the sleeve until the
longitudinal line cannot be seen.
