Hi-Density Filtered Adapter
for Telecommunications
Within the telecommunications industry, it has been
standard practice to use an adapter (male/female) type
of EMI filtered connector as the interface between the
switching system electronics and the premise wiring.
These filtered adapters provide effective containment
of EMI compared to either D-subminiature or 50-position
“ribbon” contact type connectors.
The following several factors have mandated the
development of a new generation of filtered adapters.
