Abstract

A ferrule is constructed with a modified surface to interact with a coordinating housing. The housing is constructed to be integral with the modifications of the ferrule and to fill the recesses in the ferrule body. The coordination between housing and ferrule decreases electromagnetic interference from the ferrule.
