Abstract
An electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding apparatus includes at least one power filter module having a power filter mounted within a housing. The power filter module includes a plurality of input terminals extending outward from a front wall of the housing and a plurality of output cables extending from a side wall of the housing and oriented perpendicular from the front wall. A chassis houses at least one circuit board and includes at least one input terminal opening formed therein to receive the input terminals. The input terminals extend outward from the chassis to allow the power cables to attach to the input terminals. The chassis is in contact with the front wall to prevent EMI emissions from exiting the chassis through the input terminals.
