ELECTROMAGNETIC MAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMI) ABSORBER FOR AN ELECTRONIC CONNECTOR

Abstract:

A system includes an electronic connector configured to be coupled to a connector module and an electromagnetic interference (EMI) absorber proximate to and at least partially surrounding the electronic connector. The EMI absorber may be positioned as close as possible to the electronic connector and may be attached to the electronic connector. This positioning of the EMI absorber at least partially absorbs EMI present at the electronic connector and thereby reduces the noise on electronic signals being communicated on conductors of the electronic connector as well as reducing overall radiated emissions from an electronic system including the electronic connector.
