Kit Provides EMC Shielding For Cables And Connectors

The new EMC Compliance Kit contains a wide selection of EMC shrinkMate heat-shrink tubing, which allows EMC test facilities to quickly construct connector and cable assemblies with a high degree of EMI/RFI and ESD shielding. The MIL-standard R-46846 polyolefin tubing is coated on the inside with the company's Polymer Thick Film silver ink. The tubing provides a complete 360° circumferential shield around the connector. Unlike ferrite bead, the tubing is said to be effective against both EMI/RFI ingress and egress, as well as reducing the penetration of external contaminants.
