Shielded Interconnects

Samtec's shielded interconnects feature 360° shielding for electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection. At Samtec, EMI protection is considered early in the design process. From noise on the lines to crippling entire infrastructures, large or small, EMI presents a serious problem. As all active electrical systems emit electrical noise, every device is susceptible to the damages of EMI. Samtec works in-house at their Harrisburg Design Center and through various partners to simulate and test the connectors to ensure EMI reduction using methods such as HFSS simulation of designs, shielding effectiveness testing in mode stirred chamber, shielding effectiveness in dual reverb chambers, and OATS range through 3rd parties for compliance.
