Abstract
Methods and apparatus for shielding enclosures having connector apertures result in effective electromagnetic isolation of the electromagnetic environment internal to a shielded enclosure from the external environment. Embodiments of the present invention may also accommodate the effective implementation of a low cost filter pin connector. An integrated shield ring may create an EMI doghouse with a metal ring that attaches onto a bulkhead board mounted connector that is bonded to a circular chassis ground plane on a printed wiring board (PWB) assembly.
