What This Ferrule Does in the AMPLIMITE Cable-Clamp System
The TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE 745508-6 is a ferrule split ring — the metal collar that cinches the cable braid or foil shield against the backshell of a D-sub connector. It is not a connector; it is the grounding and strain-relief interface between the shielded cable and the AMPLIMITE series cable clamp assembly. It is listed for use with DB9, DB15, and DB50 connector sizes — the same ferrule body fits all three position counts because the cable-entry diameter of the clamp is the same across the family.
