摘要： A method for electromagnetically shielding the end of a rigid cable (10) containing a large number of conductors to provide increased bending flexibility is disclosed along with a ground strap assembly (24). Ground strap assembly (24) is designed to shield a cable (10) that consists of a plurality of insulated conductors (18) surrounded by one or more conducting shields (14) (16) and outer insulating sheath (12). A portion of the outer insulating sheath (12) is removed to expose a protruding portion of conducting shield (14). The protruding portion of conducting shield (14) is folded back along a remaining portion of outer insulating sheath (12) thereby exposing the ends of the conductors. Ground strap assembly (24) comprises a braided conducting ground strap (26) that has a cable end portion (32) extending to a central portion (34). Central portion (34) extends to grounding portion (36). The cable end portion (32) is coupled to the protruding portion of the conducting shield (14) of cable (10) that has been folded back. Such coupling shields a portion of the exposed ends of the conductors (18). The central portion (34) of ground strap (26) has an exit opening to allow the exposed conductors (18) to exit from the ground strap (26) thereby allowing the conductors (18) to be flexibly maneuvered and attached to one or more connection points in an electronic device. A ground strap terminal (28) is coupled to the grounding portion (36) of ground strap (26) allowing the ground strap (26) to be attached to ground, thereby shielding the end of the cable from electromagnetic interference.

摘要： An assembly for routing fiber optic cables transversely across an electronics housing interior. The electronics housing interior supports circuit boards, some of which are optically coupled to the fiber optic cables requiring routing. The assembly includes a support member for coupling with the housing interior, and this support member is pivotally coupled to a fiber optic cable retaining member. The fiber optic cable retaining member routes the fiber optic cables across the housing interior, and it can be pivoted away from the electronics housing, enabling one to remove a circuit board for service, testing, or replacement without handling of or with minimal handling of individual fiber optic cables. A cover is pivotally coupled to the fiber optic cable retaining member, and it can be opened to facilitate the routing of the fiber optic cables or closed to protect the routed fiber optic cables.
