1. INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet covers assembly procedures for
the shielding hardware kits listed in Figure 1. The kits
are used to construct an RFI/EMI–shielded connector
assembly for customer–applied overmolding which
requires a plastic injection
molding process.
2. DESCRIPTION
(Figure 1)
Each kit includes an AMPLIMITE HDE–20, HDP–20,
or HPD–22 connector, an inner shield, and an outer
shield.
The connector (plug or receptacle) features slots on
the rear of the metal shell which are keyed to accept
hinge tabs of the corresponding shield.
The metal shields are designed to hinge on the rear
of the metal shell of the connector. The two parts of
the shield assembly are designed as inner and outer
due to their mating characteristics. The inner shield
always hinges on the shorter side of the keystone
configuration and the outer shield hinges on the
longer side. The inner shield locks into the outer
shield with a pair of latching tabs.
An appropriate ferrule must be ordered separately. It
is crimped by tooling fitted with a die assembly and is
used to secure the shield assembly and cable. The
larger diameter end of the ferrule fits onto the braid
crimp area of the shield assembly, and the smaller
diameter end fits over the cable jacket.
This controlled document is subject to change.

3. PREPARATION
The contacts will accept solid or stranded wire with an
individual wire size range of 28 through 18 AWG.
Prepare the cable as follows:
1. Obtain the connector and cable of the type and
size required for your application. See Figure 2.
2. Slide the appropriate ferrule, smaller diameter
end first, onto the cable. See Figure 3.
CAUTION
Note:

!
The ferrule MUST be placed on the cable before
terminating the connector and installing the metal
shields. The metal shields cannot be crimped
onto the cable without using a ferrule.

The length must be as indicated in Figure 5 and
must conform to the configuration as shown in
the illustration; otherwise, wires may be pinched
between the shields when they are closed. The
proper length and configuration may be achieved
by twisting (and thereby shortening) the wire
bundle after termination; however, make certain
that no undue stress is placed on the terminated
contacts during the procedure. The MAXIMUM
amount that the bundle may be twisted to
achieve the desired length is 90

2. Insert the hinge tabs of the inner shield into the
corresponding slots of the connector and rotate the
shield 90
_
toward the cable. See Figure 6.
3. Insert the hinge tabs of the outer shield into the
corresponding slots of the connector. See Figure 6.
4. Make sure that the inner shield is in its final
position and close the outer shield until it latches
onto the inner shield with the two latching tabs fully
engaged. See Figure 7.
Take care not to pinch any individual wires
between the shields.
!
5. Slide the braid over the braid crimp area of the
mated shields. See Figure 7.
6. Slide ferrule forward until it is over the braid and
butted against the shield assembly.
