In an audio cable, a conductive cylinder around one or more center conductors that protects against unwanted electrostatic fields that could induce a signal, heard as a hum or buzz, across the conductors of the cable.
is a copper braid which covers the dielectric and centre core of a coaxial cable. It protects the video signal from EMI.
A sheet, screen, or braid of metal, usually copper, aluminum, or other conducting material, placed around or between electric circuits or cables or their components to contain any unwanted radiation, or to keep out an unwanted interference.
In cables, that metallic layer applied over the insulated conductor (dielectric) or group of insulated conductors cable core to prevent electrostatic or electromagnetic interference between the enclosed wires and external fields. They can be composed of braided or served wires, foil wrap, foil backed tape, a metallic tube or tape (flat or corrugated) or conductive vinyl or rubber. In telephone cable manufacturing it is often called the tape. Shields are usually die constructed from copper and aluminum (either alone or laminated with a dielectric) bimetallic tape (copper/stainless steel/copper) and bronze.
A copper braid used to protect from electromagnetic interference by sovering the dielectric and center core of a coaxial cable
a bearing side cover made of metal and is fixed into place with a C clip
a construct programmed to filter out other constructs of form of psychic energy
a protective sheath that is made from conductive material (metal) and functions to protect the twisted pair from external interference
a wrap of a conductive metal covering the inner conductors of a given cable
(1) A non-conducting barrier positioned so as to alter the current distribution on an anode or cathode. (2) To alter the current distribution of an anode or cathode by the interposition of a non-conductor.
Any barrier to the passage of interference
In cable, a metallic layer placed around a conductor to prevent electrostatic interference between the enclosed wired and external fields.
An insulating material used with coax or twisted-pair cable to reduce electrical interference.
A metal enclosure that prevents electronic components from being affected by unwanted interference. Shielded speakers may be placed near a TV, for instance, because their magnets cannot affect the picture tube.
A metallic foil or braided wire layer surrounding a conductor or a group of conductors to prevent electrostatic or electromagnetic interferences from external sources.
1) The outer conductive wrapping around an inner wire or inner wires in a cable. 2)To protect the inner wire or inner wires in a cable from pick up of energy given off by such things as florescent lights.
(1) A conducting housing or screen that substantially reduces the effect of electric or magnetic fields on one side thereof, upon devices or circuits on the other side. Cable shields may be solid, braided, or taped (longitudinally or spirally). (2) In cables, a metallic layer placed around a conductor or group of conductors to prevent electrostatic or electromagnetic interface between the enclosed wires and external fields.
In cables, a metallic layer placed around a conductor or group of conductors to prevent electrostatic or electromagnetic interference between the enclosed wire and external fields. See "Braid".
A tape, screen or braid of metal, usually copper, aluminum, or other conductive material placed around or between electric circuits or cables or their components, to prevent signal leakage or interference.
A psychic energy barrier/interference patter that a person puts around themselves (or another person/place/thing) to prevent other psychic energy from penetrating.
A metal frame used to maintain the opening as the tunnel boring progresses. As forward progress is made, the liner is constructed behind the shield, and the the shield is jacked or moved forward.
As normally applied to instrumentation cables, the term refers to a conductive sheath (usually metallic) applied over the insulation of a conductor or conductors. This sheath provides the means to reduce coupling between the conductors so shielded and other conductors which may be susceptible to, or which may be generating unwanted electrostatic or electromagnetic fields (noise).
The outer metallic conductor that surrounds the center conductor and dielectric of a coaxial cable.
In cables, a metallic layer that prevents electrostatic or electromagnetic interference between wires and external fields when placed around a conductor or group of conductors.
An aluminium foil that surrounds a conductor or group of conductors that protects the cable from various electronic interferences.
The outmost conductor of a cable inside of which the conductors are enclosed. Also known as the screen.
A nonmagnetic, metallic material applied over an insulated conductor(s) to confine the electric field to the insulation.
A metallic foil or braided wire layer surrounding conductors, which is designed to prevent electrostatic or electromagnetic interference from external sources.
A metal inlay on the handle of a knife. It is often placed there as a trademark or decoration. Many times, it will have a name on it or a symbol that identifies the maker. Click here for illustration
