en-KC97 is the upgrade solution of KC97 cold shrink tube with built-in mastic, which has been re-designed with special appearance on tube’s surface, much helpful to improve tube’s resistance to puncture and other external damage. It has the same performance as KC97 cold shrink tube for weatherproofing protection on cable connections or joints applied on cell sites, such as connection between jumper cable and connector (7/16 DIN, N type or 4.3-10 connector) on RF equipment (RRU, Antenna and passive device), and joint between feeder and jumper cable. Comparing with tape sealing protection, time of installation is much shorter (15-30 seconds), more convenient, uniform waterproofing quality.
Applications
1. Widely used in communication base station coaxial cable, N type joints and 1/2 jumper, Din connector and 1/2 jumper connector waterproof sealing
2. Waterproof and moistureproof TV cable joint sealing
3. The insulating sealing connecting wire and cable
4. The insulating sealing protection of other types of connections
