Chatsworth 40163-007 C-Type Compression TAP
Overview
The Chatsworth 40163-007 is a C-type compression tap designed for reliable electrical connections in surveillance and IT infrastructure deployments. It specifically handles a 2/0 stranded conductor for the run and a 1/0 solid conductor for the tap, ensuring a secure and low-resistance pathway. This connector is critical for maintaining signal integrity and power delivery in complex systems where component failure is not an option.
Compatibility
This compression tap is engineered for specific conductor sizes: 2/0 AWG stranded for the main run and 1/0 AWG solid for the tap. It is suitable for use with a variety of cable types commonly found in structured cabling and power distribution for surveillance equipment, provided they meet the specified AWG and stranding requirements. Verify your cable specifications against the tap's capacity before installation.
Installation Notes
Installation requires a compatible compression tool and die set appropriate for the 2/0 AWG and 1/0 AWG conductor sizes. Ensure the conductors are clean, free of oxidation, and properly stripped according to industry standards. A proper crimp is essential for long-term reliability and to prevent signal degradation or power loss. Torque specifications, if provided by the cable manufacturer, should be followed to prevent over-compression or under-compression.
