4.0 LHS End Cap Installation
4.1 End Cap Installation on Cut Cables
Procedure:
a. Select desired port(s).
b. Cut off cone(s) as close as possible to the
diameter of the cable using the cut guides
on either side of the cone(s). See cable
diameter tape on back cover.
c. When not slitting cap, place piece of foam
in each slot on inside of cap.

5.0 Cable Preparations
5.1 Position and secure cables according to the
splice opening for the closure size selected.
See closure dimension guide for the maximum
splice openings.
5.2 Scuff 6" (152 mm) of outer sheaths as shown.
5.3 Wrap all scuffed areas with vinyl tape.
Note: Vinyl tape should be removed from under
Shield Bond Connectors when installed.
5.4 Remove outer sheath for a splice opening no
greater than the maximum splice opening
listed for closure size in closure dimension
guide.
5.5 Remove shield flush with outer sheath.
5.6 Clean filled cable for good encapsulant
adhesion and sealing.
5.7 Single Sheath Cables Procedure:
d. Place cap around cable.
e. Slide locking "H" Strip into place over the
raised guide rails. Start at the large (body)
end and work towards the small end of the
cone. Cut "H" Strip to length.
f. Slide end cap down so not to interfere with
cable preparations or splicing.

cable for the 2" (50 mm) diameter closures.
b. Trim core wrapper, leaving 3/4" (19 mm).
c. Install insulation sleeve on strain relief
bar(s). Trim length if necessary to clear
mounting holes.
d. Install one strain relief bar on Shield Bond
Connectors (to hold splice opening and
provide temporary bond.)
Note: Branch cables should be bonded according
to illustrations. If necessary, shield
connector studs may be trimmed to clear
cover halves of smaller diameter closures.
