RFI and EMI - Contacts, Fingerstock and Gaskets

4633AB51K01680 is a type of contact, fingerstock, and gasket uniquely designed for electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) shielding. It is used in a variety of consumer electronics, medical devices, and aerospace applications.

Application Field

EMI and RFI shielding is an essential component of any electronics device, ensuring that electronic signals remain contained within the system. 4633AB51K01680 provides an outstanding level of noise protection and is suitable for a wide range of applications. Examples include:

• Cellular phones and other wireless devices
• Computer and server equipment
• Radio frequency (RF) applications
• Medical imaging and monitoring equipment
• Satellite and aerospace components
• Military and other communications systems

Working Principle

The 4633AB51K01680 contact utilizes a conductive polymer material such as polyurethane foam, which creates a low profile shield by dissipating noise and controlling the electromagnetic field. This prevents radiation from escaping or entering the device. The foam also serves as a physical contact, preventing dust and other contaminants from entering the device.

The contact is then connected to a conductive plate on the inside of the enclosure, typically made of stainless steel, copper, or aluminum. This plate acts as a “ground” for the EMI and RFI signals, providing a path for them to travel on. The foam absorbs the signal, preventing it from affecting any of the other components of the device.

The 4633AB51K01680 contact is designed to meet the requirements of both EMI and RFI shielding. It is also highly flexible, allowing it to be custom-fitted to the edges of any enclosure. It can be easily installed or removed and is resistant to temperatures from -20°C to +80°C.

When correctly installed, 4633AB51K01680 provides a reliable, low-cost shield against EMI and RFI interference. Its high level of protection ensures that your device remains safe and secure from external radiation sources.
