Abstract
A connector includes a multi-port shield configured to reduce EMI. A housing is positioned inside the shield and includes one or more projections extending from a first face, the projections aligned with each port. A vertical wall is provided on the first face of the housing. Apertures in the vertical wall are aligned with the projections. The vertical wall helps reduce the amount of EMI generated by the connector.
