(Cable ends 1 & 2) Fan twisted pairs into respective quadrants. The brown pair should be opposite the orange pair. Cut spline flush to fanned pairs using wire snipping tool (CWST). 90 (Cable end 2) Align the conductor divider V channel with the green pair. 2 BLU (Cable end 1) Insert divider posts into the cable. If the cable has an internal GRN spline, insert divider posts into the brown and orange ORG quadrants of the spline.

Slide load bar towards divider until flush. Ensure the divider/load bar is centered and perpendicular to the cable axis. Trim conductors flush with load bar face. (Cable end 1) (Cable end 2) Hold the load bar and divider stationary while sliding the 8 strain relief collar forward until there is no gap between the Collar barbs collar and divider. Confirm the cable jacket extends beyond the collar barbs. Align pin 1 of cable sub-assembly (cable, load bar, divider, Boot position and strain relief collar) with pin 1 of plug housing. when using CSPT 1 8 Pins (Cable end 1) 1 8 Pins MPT5-8AS Grip the strain relief collar and insert cable sub-assembly into 10 9 the plug housing. (Fig. 9) Push sub-assembly into housing until collar locking tabs engage the plug housing pocket. Although not required, TX6 PLUS Plug Assembly Tool (CSPT) is available to facilitate this Plug step. ousing Use tool MPT5-8AS to complete plug termination. (Fig. 10) Push up boot and engage with collar latches. Visually check plug. Assembly is complete. For Technical Support: www.panduit.com/resources/install maintain.asp Page 2 of 4
