Abstract
A cable processing apparatus including a frame; a cable guide coupled to the frame; a first cable clamp adjacent the cable guide; a second cable clamp adjacent the cable guide where the first cable clamp is disposed between the cable guide and the second cable clamp; and a controller configured to move the second cable clamp to a clamped position such that a cable extending through the cable guide is clamped by the second cable clamp, move the second cable clamp, relative to the cable guide, in a direction extending along the cable such that a first portion of the insulation is removed from the cable at the first score to expose shielding of the cable, and move the second cable clamp, relative to the first cable clamp, in the direction extending along the cable to cut the shielding to expose one or more conductor of the cable.
