3.4. Terminated Receptacle Requirements
Prepared cable shall be terminated according to the procedures given in the applicable tooling instructions.
See Paragraph 2.3, for details on tooling options and instructional materials. Figure 4 shows criteria for
acceptable terminations.
Reasonable care should be taken by tooling operators to provide undamaged terminations. An improper termination in
any of the IDC contacts will be reason to discard the entire receptacle. Contacts are designed for one--time
