Abstract
An internal shield ground adapter uses spring contacts inside the kickpipe/stuffing tube to make a wideband, low impedance 360 degree contact between the shield of a cable passing through the kickpipe/stuffing tube and the kickpipe/stuffing tube itself. An environmental seal compresses the spring contacts against both the cable shield and kickpipe/stuffing tube while preventing degradation of the system by environmentally sealing the area between the cable and kickpipe/stuffing tube.
