Note: By convention, place the gray connector on the trans

mittercableendandtheblueconnectoronthereceivercable

end to maintain color coding (different color connectors are

mechanically identical).

Simplex connector crimp rings cannot be used with duplex

connectors and duplex connector crimp rings cannot be

used with simplex connectors because of size differences.

The simplex crimp has a dull luster appearance; the duplex

ring is glossy and has a thinner wall.
