Shrink Boot Adapter
III
•
•
A good solution when the unshielded cables are terminated
with heat shrink boots. It has a groove where the boot lip
can be held which provides good grip apart from sufficient
space inside for the cable looping.
Using the heat shrink boot is one way of providing envi-
ronmental protection and strain relief to cable termination.
Using a suitable adapter is essential here to ensure the
repairability.

Crimp Ring Adapter
•
Many cable terminations where heat shrink boots are used
will require provision for terminating the screens too. It is
achieved in this type of backshell through a ring, which can
be crimped to the backshell body holding the screens in
between.
Band Lock Adapter
•
Another method of termination of screens. A high quality
band will do the job in this backshell. Tempered bands are
tightened over the shields, which is pulled over the banding
area, using a special assembly tool.
•
•
Suitable over cover by heat shrink boot or some other
method as chosen by the designer could be used.
Both crimp ring and banded terminations give a low DC
resistance.
Pre-Shield Adapter
•
•
Supplied with some length of braid attached. This braid
overlaps with the cable braid.
Effective shielding takes place due to the 360° contact of the
braid.
•
•
Designed to accept heat shrink boot.
Ease of assembly saves time for cable termination.
SQ Adapter
•
•
Another cost-effective way to terminate the braid to the
adapter. The cost-effective braid is pulled over the conical
shape to the rear end of the adapter and then tied. The end
nut is tightened to ensure adequate grip for the shielding.
A heat shrink boot can be used with this adapter also.
