Abstract
Disclosed herein is a shield connection device for connecting EMI shielded cable shield to an EMI enclosure, the device includes an electrically conductive body defining a shield termination enclosure, the body having a plurality of openings extending through the body, the openings substantially parallel to longitudinal axis of the body and the body having means for accessing the opening. The connection device includes means adjacent the access means for applying fixable electrically conductive material to the opening through the access means for electrically connecting EMI cable shield thereto. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the means for applying fixable electrically conductive material in the form of solder defines a heat-recoverable sleeve with a preform of solder on its interior. Sufficient material is provided for filling the opening with electrically conductive material to block EMI paths through the opening.
