Appendix 1: Preparing a shielded cable end

This section tells how to prepare the ends of the shielded cable. This process will be

repeated four times, at both ends of both cables (although the cables will have different

overall lengths).

1. Cut the shielded cable to the overall required length.

2. Use a utility knife with a new, sharp blade to cut the plastic jacket of the shielded

cable 1" back from the end. Hold the blade perpendicular to the cable, and draw it

across the cable lightly as you rotate the cable along its long dimension. This

creates a scored line through the plastic jacket. With a sharp blade, not much

pressure is needed. You may need a bit of practice to get the feel.

3. If you've scored the jacket carefully, you can separate the jacket at the score line

without using tools. Pull the insulating jacket off, exposing the cable, showing the

foil shield, the drain wire, and the fuzzy string. The result is shown here, with the

foil shield showing. Make sure you save the gray insulating jacket for later use.

4. Cut off the fuzzy string.

5. Separate and twist the drain wire.
