ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for connecting a coaxial cable to a connector having a base for connection to a conductive shield of the cable via a solder ring within a heat-shrinkable tube, the apparatus including a first fixture for engaging an end of the coaxial cable and connector and a first heater mountable in a predetermined position with respect to the fixture for directing a controlled amount of heat to the solder and heat-shrinkable tube. The apparatus also includes a second heater mounted in a predetermined position with respect to the first fixture for providing controlled heat of a different magnitude than the first heater, a second fixture for engaging another end of the coaxial cable, a third heater mounted in a predetermined position with respect to the second fixture for directing a controlled amount of heat to the region occupied by the solder ring and the heat-shrinkable tube, and a fourth heater mounted in a predetermined position with respect to the second fixture for providing controlled heat of different magnitude than that provided by the third heater. The first fixture and the first and second heaters are mounted for movement with respect to the second fixture and the third and fourth heaters, and is an electronic controller connected to control the heaters to automatically heat and test electrical integrity of the cable and connector.
