Abstract
A cable shielding interconnect is provided that includes a star-anvil having a base and a plurality of radially projecting arms that are circumferentially spaced from one another so as to define a plurality of cable support saddles between the arms. At least two shielded cables, each including a dielectric jacket and at least one shielding member, are positioned within respective ones of the saddles, with each shielding member being electrically and mechanically accessible. A ferrule is positioned in crimped coaxial relation to the star-anvil and the at least two shielded cables are positioned in corresponding ones of the saddles so as to position each of the electrically and mechanically accessible shielding members in electrical communication with the star-anvil. The invention also provides for selective electrical interconnection of shields. A method is also provided for interconnecting cable shielding to a common electrical potential.
