OverviewWhat are the installation methods of cable assemblies?
With the rapid development of the communication industry, electronic technology has also been rapidly developed, and the application of cable accessories in the electronic communication industry is becoming more and more extensive, affecting all aspects of our work and life. Let's take a look at what is a cable assembly and how to install it.
The cable assembly is used to connect the electrical connection components between different electronic equipment systems or sub-systems. It is composed of various insulated wires, shielded wires and electrical connectors. With the widespread application of cable assemblies in the communication field, the requirements for the stability, service life and environmental resistance of the cable assemblies are becoming higher and higher. At present, the commonly used cable assemblies are connectors at both ends, the middle cable, the cable and the connector are connected by crimping, mounting or welding, and the jacket is protected by heat shrinkable tubing or injection molding.
There are three main ways to install the cable assembly: clamping type, crimping type and direct welding type.
1. Clamping type: When assembling connectors and cables, use a nut structure to connect and fix the cable shielding layer with the outer conductor of the connector housing through a clamping mechanism. This structure is suitable for flexible cables and feeder cables.
Its advantages are as follows: 1. The press copper terminal is very convenient, and it can easily achieve chain bridging in accordance with actual requirements. 2. When the wire connection positions are closely adjacent, it can improve the insulation safety and prevent the wire from branching. 3. It makes it easier for the wire to be inserted into the end.
2. Crimping type: The cable shielding layer is crimped by the crimping sleeve and fixed on the connector with special crimping pliers. The structure is simple, the installation speed is fast, the consistency is good, and the reliability is high. This structure is suitable for flexible cables.
Its advantages are as follows: 1. Simple structure. 2. Fast installation speed. 3. Good consistency. 4. High reliability.
3. Direct welding type: the inner conductor of the cable and the inner conductor of the connector, and the outer conductor of the semi-rigid cable and the outer conductor of the connector are connected by soldering. Special assembly tools are required.
Its advantages are as follows: 1. The connection line can be good. 2. The welding structure has high rigidity and good integrity. 3. Various types of welding methods, wide applicability of welding process, and relatively easy to achieve.
Because the cable selection uses high-density consumables, high-strength frequent use and incorrect operation will shorten the service life of the cable, so you must pay attention to the regular maintenance of the cable assembly and remember when using it in different occasions. , The installation method of the connector will be different in different applications, so everyone must distinguish it well to avoid damage.
