Packaging and Accessories
- Individual Packaging: Each unit is bagged individually with a complete set of components — 1 inner core assembly, 1 shell, 1 cable clamp, and 1 tail sleeve.
- Bulk Packaging: Packed 100 pieces per box, with 5 boxes per carton (500 pieces per carton), suitable for volume orders.
- No Additional Accessories Required: The MP2X ships as a complete, ready-to-assemble unit with no extra hardware needed.
Assembly Instructions
- Cable Preparation: Thread the cable through the bushing, then strip the cable end to the specified dimensions before assembly.
- Soldering: Solder the conductor portion of the cable to the core assembly, keeping the shielding layer and signal wire properly separated.
- Core Installation: Push the inner core assembly into the housing, aligning the convex bar on the core with the corresponding bar on the housing.
- Final Tightening: Tighten the tail sleeve clockwise to complete assembly and secure all components.
- Cable Diameter Adjustment: For cables sized 4-5.5mm, the clamp tail remains intact; for cables sized 5.5-7mm, a portion of the clamp tail must be broken off prior to assembly.
