Abstract
A method and device for selectively removing the outer insulating jacket from a shielded multi-conductor cable without damaging either the shielding or the conductors. A portion of a shielded cable to be terminated is positioned in the device which secures it while cutting the jacket transversely about its entire periphery but only partially through its depth. After one or more transverse cuts are made, the jacket is cut longitudinally between the transverse cuts and the severed portion peeled away to expose the conductive shield.
