2. DESCRIPTION
The cable clamp kit consists of two die--cast metal
halves (cable clamps of differing thicknesses) with
mating edges, pan head screws, slide latch screws,
and a slide latch. See Figure 1.
The cable clamps are designed to provide shielding
and strain relief for braid-- and foil--shielded cables.
Thecableclampsmaybeusedwithcablefeaturinga
split--ring ferrules or crimp ferrules, grommet, or cable
without ferrules.
The cable clamps are available in two sizes to
accommodate Size 2 and Size 3 AMPLIMITE
connectors. Refer to Figure 1 to determine the proper
cable size (diameter), connector size for the cable
clamp kit, and ferrules for the cable.
3. CABLE CLAMP APPLICATION
If the cable is not of sufficient diameter to fit
snugly into the cable clamp strain relief, apply
heat--shrinkable tubing (before working the braid
over the cable jacket) to build up the diameter.
The inside diameter of the tubing should be no
more than twice the outside diameter of the
cable. See Figure 2.
3.1. Braided--Shield Cable (Without Ferrules)
Proceed as follows:
1. Strip the cable jacket from the end of the
connector. Refer to Figure 2 for strip length
dimension.
2. Push the braided shield away from the
conductors to form a bulge at the base of the outer
cable jacket. Work the braided shield back over the
outer jacket. It may be necessary to unweave the
braided shield and place the strands evenly on the
outer jacket.

3. Apply tape or heat--shrinkable tubing (without
sealant) to secure loose strand ends to the cable
until the clamps are installed. The braid should be
exposed by 14.27 mm [.562 in.] between the tubing
(or tape) and conductors. See Figure 2.
4. Terminate the conductors with contacts and
insert the contacts into the rear of the connector or
terminate to the connector according to the
appropriate document (refer to Section 1).
5. Position the larger half of the cable clamp on the
cable and connector. Ensure that the braided
shield of cable is in the strain relief grooves of the
clamp.
6. Position the other half of the clamp on top of the
cable and secure the pan head screws into the
corresponding mating holes.
7. Insert the slide latch screws through the slide
latch and connector mounting holes, and secure
them in the tapped holes of the cable clamp.
To allow for proper slide latch operation, tighten the
screws to a torque between 0.17 and 0.23 Nm
[1.5 and 2.0 in--lb].
The braided shield may remain secured with tape
or trimmed directly behind the clamp with a sharp
shield--trimming tool. If heat--shrinkable tubing
was used to secure the braid, DO NOT trim the
tubing.

6. GROMMET ASSEMBLY (Refer to Figure 8)
Refer to the notes in Figure 2 to select the proper
cable clamp kit with grommets for the cable being
used, and proceed as follows:
1. Cut the cable to the desired length. Slide the
appropriate size grommet onto the cable with the
large outside diameter toward the cable end being
terminated.
2. Strip the cable jacket from the end of the
conductors. Take care not to cut any foil, braid, or
drain wire if present. Refer to Figure 3 for the cable
jacket strip length for HDP--20 and HDP--22
connectors.
3. If the cable has neither braid nor foil, slide
the grommet to the end of the cable jacket, and
proceed Step 4.
If cable has only foil around the conductors, cut
the foil to end of the jacket and remove. If the drain
wire is present, trim to a length of approximately
15.24 mm [.600 in.] from the end of the jacket.
Slide the grommet to the end of the cable jacket,
bend any drain wire back over top of the grommet,
and proceed to Step 4.
If cable has only braid, trim the braid to
approximately 15.24 mm [.600 in.] from the end of
thecablejacket.Slidethegrommettotheendof
the cable jacket and fold the braid as evenly as
possible around the grommet. It may be easier to
fold the braid back over the jacket end first, then
slide the grommet under it. Proceed to Step 4.
If cable has both foil and braid, trim the foil,
braid, and any drain wire to approximately
15.24 mm [.600 in.] from the end of the cable
jacket. Slide the grommet to the end of the cable
jacket and fold the braid as evenly as possible
around the grommet. It may be easier to fold the
braid back over the jacket end first, then slide the
grommet under it. Cut the foil to end of the jacket
and remove. Fold the drain wire, if present, over
the braid, and proceed to Step 4.
4. Terminate the conductors with the contacts and
insert the contacts into the rear of the connector or
terminate the connector according to the
appropriate document (refer to Section 1).
5. Position one half of the cable clamp on the
cable and connector. Ensure that the large outside
diameter of the grommet is seated against the
connector side of the inner strain relief bar of the
cable clamp.
6. In a similar manner, position the other half of the
cable clamp and secure with attaching hardware.
