An electromagnetic compatability (EMC) shield and a method of producing the same are disclosed. The EMC shield is for mounting to a substrate having a plurality of holes formed therein, such as a printed circuit board. The EMC shield is formed from a sheet of conductive metal and includes a top wall having opposing side portions. A pair of opposing first side walls are joined to the top wall at first bends, respectively. Each first side wall has a bottom portion with a plurality of mounting contacts extending therefrom. The mounting contacts may have a press-fit construction and are adapted for receipt in the holes of the substrate. The EMC shield further includes a pair of opposing second side walls, each of which is joined by a second bend to one of the first side walls. Each second side wall has a top portion that at least partially adjoins one of the side portions of the top wall.
