ELEKTROMAGNETISCHE ABSCHIRMUNG EINER STECKERANORDNUNG

The invention relates to the improvement of electromagnetic shielding properties of a connector arrangement. To meet the high demands on electromagnetic shielding properties for connectors, an electromagnetic shielding element (16) in a connector arrangement is provided that together with a shielding frame (12) of a connector or alternatively with a device housing is providing an improved electromagnetic shielding of the connector. Thereby, the design of the shielding element and its use in the connector arrangement provides a Faraday cage in the area of connection between the connector and a circuit board so that electromagnetic interference of components on the circuit board or from outside the connector arrangement may be significantly reduced. The electromagnetic shielding element itself is provided as a separate element with a plurality of protrusions (17) that can be resiliently and/or detachably engaged to a shielding frame of the connector or the device housing of the connector arrangement.
