2. DESCRIPTION
The terminating head is used to terminate multi-pair,
copper-conductor cables 22 through 26 AWG,
shielded or unshielded, up to 8-pair using
Communications Outlet - Edge Connector Kit 
556524-1. To assemble the connector kit, follow the
instructions supplied with the connector kit.
The Communications Outlet - Edge Connector Kit
556524-1 consists of three components:
1. Housing
2. Terminals
3. Stuffer Assembly
To make the edge connector compatible with the
terminating head, the stuffer assembly (supplied with
the Edge Connector Kit) must be replaced with strain
relief 556805-1. One strain relief is required for each
connector and it must be placed onto the connector
before the connector is loaded into the terminating
head.
CAUTION
Failure to use the strain relief may cause the
following conditions:
!
1. The wire insertion will not have the proper
retaining force.
2. The wire may flex at the termination slot and
break off at that point.
3. During termination in the tool, the product may
not be at the proper depth alignment with the
inserters, causing damage to the product and/or
inserter.
The terminating head is inserted into the pistol grip
handle assembly and serves as a guide and support
for the connector during termination. It will shear and
terminate two wires during a normal stroke. Features
of the head (as shown in Figure 1) and their functions
are listed as follows:
Wire Inserter - is one side of the shearing surfaces
that cuts the wire at the proper dimension for insertion
and guides the wire into the IDC (Insulation
Displacement Connector) slot.
Adjuster (Insertion Rod) - is the piston for the wire
inserter and regulates wire insertion travel.
Ball Plunger - aligns connector in proper position for
wire insertion.
