Abstract
An electromagnetic shield assembly for an optical fiber connector which comprises a conductive frame member enclosing an open space and a plurality of conductive fibers each secured at only one end to the frame member and extending into the open space. The free ends of the conductive fibers overlap in a central region of the open space to provide a “self-healing” mesh shield.
