more than 100 EMC-solutions

In endangered areas, in which high-frequency radio interference can occur, the use of cables and wires with shielding in connection with EMC cable glands is of particular importance, in addition to many other EMC measures. Electromagnetic or high-frequency interference affecting the cable is absorbed and diverted by the shielding.

The cable shield has the task of preventing interference from the internal conductors. The screen itself should not become the antenna. Therefore, the contact or connection point between the cable shield and the housing potential is very important.

The connection point must be low-impedance, offer a large contact area and must ensure a closed connection without gaps. The cable shield must be lead to the housing wall over the shortest possible route and with the widest possible cross-section.

This effective contact and connection function is achieved in many areas through the use of EMC cable glands.

The Jacob range contains over 100 EMC components for the installation of shielded cables and wires.

All of our solutions enable a consistent contacting of the cable shield and thus ensure an EMC-compliant and permanently secure connection to the housing potential.
