Cable connection and shielding device

摘要

A device for electromagnetically shielding a cable or the like that is connected to a board connector on a circuit board inserted into a magazine using a corresponding cable connector. The circuit board includes a board front having an opening through which the cable connector is connected to the board connector. The device includes a shielding sleeve that is mounted on the circuit board over the board connector and extends through the opening in the board front. A shielding spring is mounted on the shielding sleeve between the sleeve and the opening in the board front. The sleeve is open towards the circuit board and the board front opening and is provided with recesses. The shielding spring includes a frame that extends around the sleeve and includes a plurality of outwardly directed, resilient tongues that lie against the board front. A plurality of resilient tabs lie along the shielding sleeve, the outermost parts of which include inwardly directed tongues. The inwardly directed tongues are received in the recesses in the sleeve and lie against the cable connector inserted in the shielding sleeve.
