19 DEC 11 Rev A
The ferrule, which is ordered separately from the
AMPLIMITE* connector, is sized according to the
insulation diameter of the cable. Each die assembly is
marked with the cable insulation diameter range.
3. DIE ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
The die assembly is designed to fit securely into the
tool by upper and lower die holder plates; each die is
held in by a single screw. To install the die assembly,
refer to the instructions packaged with the tool:

1. INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet covers the use and maintenance
of Crimping Die Assemblies 1583015-1, -2, -3, and
1583016-1, which are designed to be used in Hand
Crimping Tool Frame Assembly 543344-1 or 58235-1,
or in Pneumatic Power Unit 312522-3 equipped with
Die Holder Assembly 58449-1. Each die assembly
crimps a ferrule onto round shielded cable used with
HSSDC2 Connectors.

Dimensions are in millimeters [with inches in
brackets]. Figures and illustrations are for
reference only and are not drawn to scale.
2. DESCRIPTION
Each die assembly consists of an indenter (stationary
die) and an anvil (moving die). When mated, the dies
form two crimping sections: the braid and the
insulation. The braid section crimps the front part of
the ferrule onto the cable shield and the cable outlet of
the connector shield assembly, and simultaneously,
the insulation section crimps the back part of the
ferrule onto the cable insulation. The anvil die is
designed with a stop to ensure proper positioning of
the ferrule for crimping. See Figure 1.

4. CRIMPING PROCEDURE
Assemble the connector. Make sure the ferrule is over
the connector shield cable outlet and butted against
the shield body. Then, proceed as follows:
1. Place the ferrule on the moving die, with the
cable extending out the back side of the die. Make
sure that the front part of the ferrule is positioned in
the braid section and the back part of the ferrule is
positioned in the insulation section. See Figure 2.
CAUTION
The front edge of the ferrule must be against the
stop and the connector body must be clear of the
!
dies.
2. Actuate tool for crimping according to the
instructions packaged with the tool.
3. Remove connector from die assembly and
inspect the crimped ferrule to the requirements
outlined in the applicable application specification:
114-13028 High Speed Serial Data
Connector 2 (HSSDC2)
See Figure 3 for a properly crimped ferrule.
5. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE
The die assembly is inspected prior to shipment,
however, it is recommended that the die assembly be
inspected immediately upon arrival. TE Connectivity
recommends that a maintenance and inspection
program be performed periodically to ensure
continued reliability of the die assembly. The
inspection frequency should be based on the amount
of use, working conditions, operator training and skill,
and established company standards.
