Abstract
An assembly for improving the shielding of an electronic system from electromagnetic interference radiation and electrostatic discharge includes a U-shaped conductive bracket as part of the face plate assembly secured to an edge of a circuit card. A conductive latch member is pivotably mounted on the bracket and extends through open slots in the bracket. A conductive gasket is provided on one side of each bracket to engage the opposite side of the bracket of an adjacent face plate assembly. Other conductive gaskets slidingly engage the latch member and seal the slots in the bracket.
