Making of Jumper cable assembly


In this 3G era of mobile connection the cable assembly or the jumper cable is very important. Because this assembly decide the quality of your provider. So in this point of view provider should think more time to choose the proper cable assembly. There are so many jumper manufacturing companies in the world, but few of them maintain their quality world class.

There are many procedure of manufacturing cable assemblies.
1. Quick fit or Thread type.
2. Soldering type.
3. Crimp type.

Quick fit or quick lock is generally used for site solution. Where customer need to make the assemblies at the site. In this situation manufacturer always think about the simple solution. This thread lock type is very popular in these industries. The other procedure is soldering. If customer want very high precision cable or testing or best quality, then soldering or crimping must be the right process.

Manufacturing Procedure: At first cut the cable as much required. But the edge of the cutting should be high quality. Then strip the cable end as per connector design. Solder the inner pin of connector to the center pin of cable. Then solder the outer conductor to tne corrugated portion of cable. Soldering should be done by the inductive soldering station. Resistance soldering may be used, but if you worry about the plating of connector, then you must go to the inductive soldering staion. Make a molding or heat shrink tube at the outer conductor soldering area to protect from the air and water. If one connector is angular, press the cap on it.
