I finally got the time to solder the JT2 kit (balanced) together. I have some doubts though.
I got one piece of multi-wire cable and three identical "snap-on"-type cable-to-board terminals. I understand that two terminals are destined for the two attenuator boards.
Do I only need one terminal for the relay control board? Does this model of terminal take two layers of multiwire-cable?
The relay control board has connections for two of these terminal but they are two close to actually fit two terminals on at the same time.

Thanks,

Nic

The compression fittings allow the ribbon cable to pass through. The intended approach is to daisy chain the ribbon to the two relay boards. So, it can either start at the driver board, run through the connector of the first relay board, then to the second; or the driver board could be placed in the middle of the cable and the ends run to each of the relay boards.

Thanks Brian. Just what I needed to know.
Just one more question: can the fitting stand one cycle of "de/re-compression" (one for testing and a final when I have found an appropriate chassis)?
Thanks again,
Nic

Yes, but it can be a pain to get them to release.
