SECTION THREE: Installing and wiring the 2201 or 2301
Re-fabricating the 958 connector
If you ever want to shorten the antenna cable, or remove its connector to make more room to run
the cabling, you can remove the connector from the 958 end and then replace it:
1. After shortening or snaking the cable, slide the available heat shrink tubing onto
the cable, then slide the connector backshell onto the cable, as shown below.
2. Prepare each wire for insertion into its solder cup by stripping it and tinning it.
3. Carefully solder each wire to the appropriate cup, as described in Table 3 below.
4. Slide the backshell down the cable and screw it onto the connector body. It should
be hand tight.
5. Using the supplied screws, screw the strain relief onto the backshell.
6. Slide the heat shrink tubing onto the connector. Be sure to leave room for the
locking collar to retract.
7. Heat the shrink tubing until it shrinks around the connector, providing a
watertight seal.
For the pin numbers and functions for the 958 end of the cable, see Table 3 below.
