Electrical communication between an information handling system chassis having a non-conductive surface and processing components within the chassis is established through the non-conductive surface with conductive elements extending from a conductive pad. A protruding element extending from a conductive pad engages the conductive elements through the non-conductive surface when the protruding element is coupled to a cavity formed in the chassis. Alternatively, the protruding element extends from the chassis to couple to a cavity in the conductive pad. Processing components have electrical communication with the chassis through the conductive pad.

System and method for electrical communication through a non-conductive information handling system chassis surface

A chassis discontinuity seal includes a gasket member comprising a compressible material with an interruption on its peripheral surface and a flexible sealing material spanning the interruption. The gasket member is placed on a first surface for sealing engagement with a mating closure surface. The compressible material has a first density and the interruption defines an elongated portion of the gasket having a second density, less than the first density. The gasket may be used in any shielding enclosure where it is desirable to reduce the compression force while maintaining high surface conductivity.
