2M801-007-26NF6-23SA

2M801 is generally considered a legacy series. Its successor, the 2M805 series, has a number of important improvements, including a triple-start thread (which reduces the number of turns it takes to fully mate the connectors) and an EMI band (which increases shell-to-shell conductivity and greatly improves signal shielding). You should choose 2M801 if you’re looking to maintain compatibility or interoperability with existing technology or cables.

Assembly Instructions

Wire Stripping

1. Strip wire to required length. When using hot wire stripping, do not wipe melted insulation material on wire strands; with mechanical strippers do not cut or nick strands.
2. See Table 1 for proper finished outside wire dimensions.
3. Twist strands together to form a firm bundle.
4. Insert stripped wire into contact applying slight pressure until wire insulation butts against wire well. Check inspection hole to see that wire strands are visible. If there are strayed wire strands, entire wire end should be re-twisted. When wire is stripped and properly installed into contact, the next step is to crimp the wire inside the contact by using the proper crimping tool.

Crimping

1. Insert stripped wire into contact crimp pot. Wire must be visible through inspection hole.
2. Using correct crimp tool and locator, cycle the tool once to be sure the indentors are open, insert contact and wire into locator. Squeeze tool handles firmly and completely to insure a proper crimp. The tool will not release unless the crimp indentors in the tool head have been fully actuated.
3. Release crimped contact and wire from tool. Be certain the wire is visible through inspection hole in contact.
