Abstract
An EMI shielded connector assembly is disclosed for terminating a shielded electrical cable. The EMI shielded cable preferably includes a plurality of conductors and electrically isolated inner and outer EMI shielding layers surrounding the conductors. The connector assembly includes a connector member having a plurality of contact elements, a mating portion for engaging a compatible connector member, and a terminal portion for terminating the cable conductors to the contact elements. A shielding element is electrically connected to the outer shielding layer of the cable and substantially surrounds the terminal portion of the connector member to provide continuous shielding of the connector member from electromagnetic interference, the shielding element being mechanically secured to the cable and to the connector member. Means are also provided for electrically connecting the inner shielding layer of the cable with one of the contact elements to thereby extend the double-shielding capability and characteristics of the cable throughout the entire connector assembly.
