The Shield-Kon two-piece shield termination system from Thomas & Betts consists of 2 cylindrical sleeves: an inner sleeve, with a smaller diameter, and an outer sleeve, which has a larger diameter but which is shorter and less hard than the inner sleeve. The conductors of the cable are inserted through the inner sleeve, whereas the shield (braided or foiled) and the drain wire are inserted between the 2 sleeves. The crimp operation is done by compressing the outer sleeve with a tool, while the inner sleeve ensures a mechanical protection to the inner conductors. This unique shield termination system can be used with cables having a diameter of dielectric (after removing the outer insulation and the shield) between 1.1 mm and 73 mm.
