Tempest high performance level EMC backshell
The KC 2300 is a series of high performance EMC backshells that provides excellent protection including Tempest levels but is reduced in sizeand weight from other backshells in the range.
This is achieved by interweaving a special mesh braid through the individual screens, around the cable bundle and through a slot in the gland body.
This is then tightened and terminated against a spigot.
Lightweight and compact, the KG8 and KG9 provide a highly cost effective EMC solution for any application where a screen needs to be terminated at penetration point while allowing access to individual conductors.
Environmental protection is provided by an O-ring and heat shrink boot.
