Optical EMI Shielding Adapters

Optical Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) shielding adapters are designed to address mechanical-design requirements limiting EMI and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) emissions from front panels or enclosures. The adapters are constructed of either all die-cast housings or as a half die-cast, half polymer housings. Housings have an EMI gasket that seals the adapters to the panel. EMI adapters increase the shielding effectiveness while enhancing the front-panel aesthetics compared to traditional plastic adapters.
When IO density, EMI containment, behind-panel fiber routing or eye safety are concerns for designers of datacom, telecom or other networking equipment, it is essential to look into upgrading to fiber optic adapters (IO) that offer the most diverse set of features in the market. The new MPO (MTP*) front-interface to MPO (MTP*) or MT or HBMT™ board-side interconnects offer optical routings that are closer to the panel and protrude less inside the box, optimizing internal space.
