  • Patent number: 6623303
    Abstract: The invention provides EMI cable shield termination apparatus. The apparatus includes (a) a cable exit panel coupled to a first electronic system and (b) one or more clamps coupled to the exit panel. The exit panel serves as an interface for one or more cables coupled to the first electronic system; the clamps provide mechanical coupling, and EMI shielding, for the cables to that interface. The exit panel couples to electrical ground such as through connection to the chassis of the first electronic system. The clamps also couple to ground through connection with the exit panel. Preferably, one end of the cables attaches to the clamps, at the interface formed by the exit panel, and the other end of the cables attach to respective ferrules coupled to a second electronics system. Beneficially, the apparatus reduces EMI effects generated from the first electronic system and coupled into the second electronic system.

  • Patent number: 6566973
    Abstract: An electromagnetic enclosure is provided that this configured to enclose an electrical assembly. The enclosure includes a waveguide defining a channel that one or more cables from the electrical assembly pass through. The waveguide is dimensioned to attenuate radiation having a selected frequency range. With the present invention, shielding emitted or transmitted radiation around an opening in an enclosure and around cables can be easily done.

  • Patent number: 6545220
    Abstract: A shielded cable assembly contains one or more hardpoints that resist damage arising from possible collapse of the shielded cable assembly under strong compressional forces that are exerted by a clamp assembly in the form of a separable block having first and second opposed members. The hardpoint contains a conduit that protects a data transfer line or cable bundle by compressing electromagnetic shielding between the conduit and the clamp assembly. Cable electromagnetic shielding may be exposed over a selected hardpoint for use as needed in a particular application.
