[CA] [CA11] RD218 connection - crimp or solder?

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum YoBub,

When Raymarine manufactured or repairs radar cables for radomes having analog video interfaces, the pins of the cable's molex connector are crimped onto the cable's leads. A tool which is specially designed for the molex connectors pins is used for this purpose. If considering to solder the cable's wires to the molex connector's pins, then care should be exercised to not apply too much heat or risk melting the insulation of the cable's leads.
