Abstract

A conductive EMI shielding assembly for shielding the connection between a multi-wire cable and a corresponding circuit board connector is disclosed, and includes a housing portion for surrounding the circuit board connector and a coupling portion for mating with the housing portion and the cable. The housing portion has a base with a rectangular configuration and a collar portion that mates with a corresponding collar portion of the coupling portion. The coupling portion has an opposing end that slips over the end of the cable and attaches to the cable. The housing collar portion and coupling mating portion include associated tabs and openings arranged around them in a circular pattern at preselected angular intervals. The tabs and openings permit the coupling portion to be oriented with respect to the housing portion in a number of different patterns.
