Remove the setting for “suffix” because it hold the number for the subtable,
the number itself can be changed with
\setupfloatsplitting[conversion=…]
and a separator between the float number and the suffix can be added with
\setupcaption[suffixseparator=…].
To add a stopper behind the suffix a different method is needed because
although there is a “numberstopper” key for \setupcaption the symbol is added
before the suffix, what you can do is to put he symbol in the label text with
\setuplabeltext[table={Table ,:}]
but a extra key “suffixstopper” but we useful in this case.
@Hans: Can you make this change in strc-flt.mkvi?
\unexpanded\def\thecurrentfloatnumbersuffix
{\doifsomething{\floatcaptionparameter\c!suffix}
{\floatcaptionparameter\c!suffixseparator
% \floatcaptionparameter\c!suffix}}
\floatcaptionparameter\c!suffix
\floatcaptionparameter\c!suffixstopper}}
