Zusammenfassung:A method is disclosed for terminating semirigid coaxial cable that is phase matched which is accomplished by cutting a length of coaxial cable to the exact or approximate desired electrical length. A coaxial connector is permanently terminated onto one end of the cable and a phase-matching test connector is positioned onto the other end of the cable. The cable is tested to determine if the electrical length of the cable is correct. If it is, the test connector is removed and another coaxial connector is permanently terminated onto the other end of the cable. If the electrical length of the cable is too long, the test connector is removed, the cable is trimmed to the correct length, the test connector is reapplied onto the cable, the cable is retested, and if now correct, the other coaxial connector is permanently terminated onto the cable.
