Body assembly
Backnut
Insulator
Solder Ferrule
Contact (male or female)
Solder
—Assemble insulator and contact onto cable dielectric and
center conductor. If insulator is not ush against solder ferrule due to
dielectric extrusion, retrim dielectric.
—Solder contact to center conductor by heating rear of contact
(do not feed additional solder through inspection hole in contact).
(omit this step for precision N bulkhead jacks)

Dielectric
—Trim cable per trim code below; tin end of center conductor.
(For precision N bulkhead jack, chamfer end of center conductor and
do not tin.)
—Slide backnut over cable. Slide solder ferrule over cable until it stops
against cable jacket.
—Solder cable jacket to ferrule.
