  • Prepare the Cable:
    Strip the Outer Jacket: Use a cable stripping tool to remove approximately 1.5 to 2 inches of the outer jacket from the LMR 400 cable. Be careful not to damage the underlying braided shield.
    Expose the Shielding: Pull back the braided shield to reveal the dielectric insulation. Trim any excess shielding so that it fits properly inside the connector.
    Strip the Dielectric: Strip the dielectric insulation to expose the center conductor. The length of the exposed center conductor should be about 1/4 to 1/2 inch.
  • Prepare the Connector:
    Slide on the Clamp or Ferrule: If the connector has a separate clamp or ferrule, slide it onto the cable before inserting the cable into the connector. This part will be used to secure the cable to the connector.
    Insert the Cable: Insert the prepared end of the LMR 400 cable into the UHF male connector. Ensure that the center conductor is correctly aligned with the center pin of the connector and that the shield fits into the clamp area.
  • Secure the Connection:
    Clamp the Connector: Use a wrench or pliers to tighten the clamp or ferrule around the cable. This clamps the connector firmly onto the cable, ensuring a solid mechanical connection. Ensure that the clamp is evenly tightened to avoid gaps or uneven pressure.
    Check the Fit: Make sure the center conductor is properly aligned with the center pin and that the shield is firmly secured by the clamp.
  • Insulate and Finalize (Optional):
    Apply Heat Shrink Tubing: For additional insulation and strain relief, slide heat shrink tubing over the joint and apply heat to shrink it tightly around the connector and cable.
    Inspect the Assembly: Check that the connector is securely attached and that there are no loose or poorly crimped parts. Ensure that the connection is solid and the center pin and shield are well-connected.
